+1, I saw a lovely Milano Red in a car park which tipped me into getting a Euro. I saw Silvers, Blacks etc. beforehand but it was that mesmerising bright red that actually made me adore the Euro.

Agreed, Milano red fades like a mofo under the Australian sun.

IM artic blue with white ray's 17/18 lightweight are the best lol.

For the CL9, it looks good in all colours, but especially in Nighthawk Black Pearl. Car still looks good in silver and red, but they are not my favoured colours.

For the CU2, it looks best in Premium White Pearl or Cobalt Blue Pearl. I don't think that cobalt blue is available any more? It's been replaced with a boring pale Celestial Blue.

I was not a fan of the Volcano Grey, it looks slightly brown and dirty. The Graphite Grey looks much, much better.

I chose Buran Silver,as my previous 2 cars were Silver silver,and ALWAYS looked good,were easy to keep clean,did not show the scratches,and had the best resale value.
So I wanted something Silvery,but not Silver .

Love the colour,as in the sun it looks Champagne,in the dark it looks greyish...but shows off the shape of the Euro really well.

It has just been replaced by Alabaster Silver,which is another Silver Silver...

And had to wait a month for it,as a very popular colour .

Buran Silver was nice & I liked the way the colour changed in different lighting. to me the worst thing they did was go to Alabaster Silver - it is so plain looking.

We have a 2006 Graphite Euro Luxury but I now favour the Silver.

Darker colours looks good and benefit from lowering plus bigger wheels (polished alloy or even laced Gold).

Lighter colours look good with tasteful chromed wheels or at least a polished lip.

- HZAgreed. I liked the graphite gray on my old CL9 much better than the Volcano gray on my CU2. I think the volcano gray needs to be darker.

Its welltrue the buron silver change to different color in different lighting..During dulltime the color is like champaigne and during very bright sunny day its silver. I don't know why they stopped buron silver and bring up alabaster silver which is plain color.

Pearl White for me and it sets off beautifully with the black leather interior. I love it driving at night, feels like you are floating in nothing.

My euro sport is alabaster silver and i like the practicality of. As someone has already said it doesn't show dirt, scratches etc. If i were to pick my dream euro colour it would have to be Arctic blue pearl. Great colour.. it was just a shame that when i was looking for my current car there were none on the market.

Was undecided between Graphite and Black. Went with Graphite. I think it's a good colour. Dark but not too dark.

I saw the new light Blue metallic on a lux in the showroom the other day,and it looked very good,so much so that if I was on the market for a new car,I would have bought it there and then.

You mean the Celestial Blue - Metallic. I saw one driving around and it looks washed out and faded in real life. It was defintiely the new CU2 with the cats bum face.

A non-Euro colour that I would have bought if it was available was the Vivid Blue Pearl that came with the Gen 1 Jazz.

My CL9 is Arctic Blue Pearl. It ages very well. I don't particularly like the non-colours like white, black or grey on principle but the white does look good on the CU2.

Celestial Blue Pearl doesn't look good in photos and I've not seen a CU2 in that colour. The previous Cobalt Blue Pearl was too dark to be practical but it had nice colour changing effects.

I've had three red cars and they all faded badly.
