Hi there

Just read some friend tell me not to buy a used Milano Red Euro as they fad into a painkish colour in a few years unless someone has noted it and has had it resprayed within the warranty period. Is this true?

Thanks in advance.

Depends what type of condition the car has been kept in... garage vs outside and were they leave it at work... its obviously the sun and a serious lack of TLC that leaves red cars turning pink but if you look after it, polish regularly depending were its kept... it should stay red for definatly longer than a few years.... im sure many people here will testify to having 'red' cars still after many years of owning a euro due to the fact that we look after them!

In short , yes.

I'm yet to see a milano red euro, but i have seen a MR Integra Type R (99 model) and civic ek (98 model i think).

Both cars were pretty pink.

Also consider this, not many people like red cars. so it may hinder your chance of selling your red euro. Maybe consider opting for a model 'luxury' colour like silvers, black, pearl white, etc etc.
