I would say White. Lotus do a stunning new Pearlescent white that looks amazing!!


Managed to find a small photo of the new pearlescent white. Very similar to Lambo white. As mentioned before though I would be a little scared at how long the 'white' fad will last thumbsup

Where were you thinking of getting it done??


the white fad is only here because for years top of the range cars have never been available in white.. always silver red blue and green etc..

now theyve started chuking them out in white though you are right it may get a little boring

white clio cups
white golf gti's
white lambos
white elises

etc..

Agree with comments on white... as good as they look now, might not be so great in a couple of years. I've always adored the Renault Liquid Yellow one.

The Gulf one looks like Dolphin thumbsdown (on a side note, that hinged front clam is terrible!!). Has to be a dark blue metallic to avoid fad colours thumbsup

Gets my vote – but only with the black wheels that give a sense of purposefulness to the bright colour.

Leave KG where it belongs! :D

How much hate mail would one expect to receive should they respray a Lightening Yellow special edition another colour? Anybody got an idea of prices of lightening yellow, lotus pearly white, scubbawagon white, transit van white etc (£ per litre) Theoretically speaking of course :happy: :blush: :unsure:

Slindborg: so that's mandarin then essentially :D Only other colour I would have is Krypton Green :wub: I keep reading reference to 'Scandal Green' accompanied by much guffawing on SELOC - what's the deal with that? That pearlescent white is extremely sexy though...mmm... That Renault Liquid Vomit reminds me of the dried mustard around those yellow plastic squeazy bottles you get in skanky cafes :sick:

Phwoargh. Is 'Scandal Green' the official Lotus name? What's the difference between that and 'Krypton Green'?
