FAO Nimbus heeds?



  LY 200
Is it silver or is it grey?

Iv seen alot of people recently call it grey whether on here or elsewhere in adverts so what is the correct colour or isnt there one?

I ask as iv always thought of it as silver but looking at it alongside a silver car the other day it was a fair bit duller.

Good question, i'd say Silver.

Grey is much darker than Nimbus imo.

It's also a hero colour.

The 197 is called Nimbus Grey and I would say it is more Grey than silver....

It varies in different lights, sometimes it looks silver sometimes it looks a lot darker...

therefore...

GREY

Grey, quick pic to demonstrate the nimbus against the mercury silver.

My cars. One is definitely grey and in comparison the other one is therefore silver.

Nimbus Grey is a daft name; call it Nimbus Silver.

Nimbus Grey, therefore it is grey :)

It's called nimbus grey so i would say grey but the logbook says silver so Grilver????

Having not looked at the log book i wouldnt know but you cant just make up your own colour. lol

Lucky boy! :cool:

I would say CTR Cosmic Grey is a Grey but Nimbus is a dark silver.

I just wondered what the wider scale of people considered it to be as iv seen plenty call it grey probably because its abit cooler to have a grey car. lol

My money is on grey but it's about as grey as Storm Grey on the 200 :S.

Still the best colour though :rasp:

It does appear silver until parked next to a silver car. The silver car then looks a lot lighter imo

Can I have your turbo please?

Haha. Cheers mate!!! It's staying for put. I wouldn't even sell it for profit as it stands. If you want to see a few pics of it check my older posts on my profile. It's the one on the spotted forum.

Going back to the topic I was thinking about this discussion as I picked my fiancée up from work yesterday. I know I had initially said silver but after parking up, in a certain light it looked a weird colour that was darker. I wouldn't say grey but it wasn't purely silver. I suppose it's what light it is seen in.
