A black E is always a great choice. You can't go wrong with a silver, though.

I agree with Noble 320,
It is like asking someone's advice on what colour should I choose. By sheer coincidence before replying here I noticed Oslo's thread 'Designio Colours'.

If my dealer had those pictures available when I was ordering my vehicle then I would have chosen a different colour to what I have. (sadly I knew more about the various options, and even learnt more from this forum)

I would have gone for either the colours of pictures 2, 3 or 5 in Oslo's thread.

Oslo, Put the blooming names of the colours on your excellent thread

Regards,
John

silver is a 13 per dozen color...and unless silver is either 760 silver or 777 silver, I don't really like it...

Of all 211s I worked on, I really liked the sight of 189 opal black colored 211s and the look of tectite colored 211s...

greetingz,

You are eloquent in your brevity. I love brilliant silver but . . .

Hence my order.

I hope I didn't make a mistake (platinum blue w/stone); it's not very popular here.

Whichever one is available (1 of 5)
Brilliant silver/ash stands out in the crowd as knight in shining armour.

My biased choice is tectite/charcoal. Black/charcoal is another nice combo as long as it is not run through car washes. Saw one today that had so many ugly swirl marks. I felt sad for the car and upset at the owner.
