Peoples Favourite Colour 182



  RB & LY 182
Ive got a RB that ive had since 8th september.

Don't get me wrong i love it to bits but i can't help thinking that would i have liked a Liquid Yellow 1 better or even the Trophy.

My brother has a black 1 and the girlfriends brother has a Trophy.

I like them all what obviously these are my top 3.

wot do other people prefer and would u change the colour u got???

I like RB, but not as much as i did before i got one.

LY is very nice, but would prefer petrol blue over anything, mostly because it is really rare.

Would love an acid yellow one though :D

i had black gold and in the sun its the only colour i'd have, for the other 364 days of the year i'd probably go RB

LY probably, but I'm not sure I could live with it as an everyday car.

I like BG when it's sunny and they're clean, but that's only about 0.2.5% of the time....

First time I've ever seen that colour, doesn't look fantastic on my screen as it's a bit dark, but guessing it will look quite cool when you're next to it as I can just see the colour in areas of the car.

I've seen petrol blue it's different and it's rare cos hardly any1 liked it. Lol I'd say LY is a gorgeous colour, I see 1 everyday cos a lad has 1 near me. inferno is cool aswell ; ).

I missed a reasonable LY at Seaham a week before I bought mine. I then nearly bought an inferno as it was my favourite colour at the time by far from North Sheilds, but it was vastly overpriced and I wasn't keen on the Cup interior.

I was quite lucky as I went from him not budging much on price to a private sale for my lower miles and £2k cheaper (£1.5k cheaper on a negotiated price for the Inferno) BG, then he phoned the next day and offered me the Inferno at a grand more than mine, which I may have took at the time because of the colour.

Happy I'd bought mine in hindsight though.

I wanted an inferno 182 for AGES, but went for RB in the end (on Revels' advice, oddly enough!) Was glad I did, when I eventually saw inferno in the metal it wasn't the sparkly orange I was expecting.

Would have liked LY too but there weren't any for sale when I was looking. Least I have that colour now.

Petrol blue is gorgeous, I'd definitely have had one of them but I think I'd have still been waiting for one now!

I never regretted buying racing blue, it's a great colour, really stands out and really suits the shape of the car. I always used to get compliments on the colour.

If you dont agree with me, you are wrong

Racing Blue is a really nice colour but its a bit 'look at me'.. also looks a bit plasticy but its a good colour in small dosages i.e i wouldnt be able to live with it.

LY is, of course, a beautiful colour! Lovely when the sun hits it

Black gold is also amazing, providing it is spotlessly clean and has the cup wheels

Good decision the less around here the better ; p.

I do mate, but not a lot - mainly from Q Hill to Bowburn where I work, the odd trip to Gilesgate, Peterlee, Spennymoor and that's about it though.

I'm too old to be cruising every night like I used to!

Where you from then?

Titanium silver! :)...no? lol

LY is nice, RB is also very nice.

May get mine sprayed white one day. As i would love a white one!!

+1

I think I've seen two now. Truly superb colour. I think with a few subtle mods, a petrol blue 182 could look epic of epic proportions...

Is there a reason petrol blue sold in such low numbers? Stunning colour!

Yep - circa £1,200 iirc. The only reason that stopped me ordering it. :dapprove:

I've owned my personal favourites. Rb is fantastic, capsicum looms great cleaned up. I don't like inferno, and I hate ly, just doesn't suit them at all. Inferno looks good in direct sunlight, dull as ditchwater the other 98% of the time.
 
RB or Titanium for me. Think that LY looks best on an R27, Quite liked AG when I saw it in the flesh but not too sure how it would have looked on a 182. Also Lunar Grey looks cool and would suit a 182
