I thought I'd put this misconception to bed yesterday, I'm getting too tired and too old to worry about what the patchy pink brigade thinks the best colour is.....
(BTW, I think you'll find the best shade's green, Or possibly blue....... Yellow's quite nice too though.......... )

Lexus rear lights, Front strut brace, Goodridge brake hoses, MOMO Race steering wheel, Magnicor 8mm HT leads, BRG hard top, Alloy ball gear knob, 3rd brake light boot lid, Black 16x7.5 TSW Hockenheim's with 195/45/16's up front and 215/40/16's out back, Green mohair with glass, Apex suspension fully adjustable coilovers, Stainless exhaust, Carbing Style Towing Eyes. Quad low level headlights, Racing Beat type 1 boot spoiler, Vented headlight lid, Clear side reflectors, Offset numberplate bracket.
Still to fit. Torsen type II differential, Shortened Renault Laguna front bumper lip, Boot lifter ram, Wide arch spats, A car set of 25mm wheel spacers, 1.8 cam cover (Still needs painting).
Still to find (Cheaply). Black cloth Lotus Elise seats, LED 3rd brake light, 1.8 plenum chamber to paint, About 4 lites of "HU" green and 2 lites of Sunburst yellow. Is anyone still reading this? No?....

Mark:
Yellow is good.
Will have to make something up about that.
How about most likely to be waved at
Umm interesting thought, will keep you informed, mind you might be less likely to get a wave coz they're all dazzled
