Emocion Red Ibiza ST Ecomotive. I particularly wanted the Estate version and at the time I was looking - leading up to Christmas 2015 - ( I often buy my cars around Christmas as salesmaen are "hungry" at that time of year) This one turned up on a deal I just couldn't resist. Wasn't looking for any particular colour although red was not at the top of the heap. However she made me think of the Mk1 Cortina 1500 GT I had back in '66 which was Dragoon Red. I know red paint has a reputation for fading so I'd better keep her well polished!

our old Cordoba vario 1.9tdi (had it for 19 years) was Bengal yellow - never lost it in a car park! Paint faded badly as she got older and clear coat was lifting all over the place.

I also love how the panel gaps all around the car are so precise

They're not bad eh? You don't realise how tidy they are until you look at other cars. I was looking at Ford Fiestas for a second car. At first I thought the ones I was looking at had been in accidents, then I realised the panel gaps were just like that!

My Leon in Nevada white at to be honest I prefer the plain white. The Nevada looks kinda grey in low light and you only see the sparkles when the car is gleaming. Which our car never is! ;0) At the time it was a £500 extra!

For me, as soon as I saw the Leon brochure/website, I knew I wanted the colour they had picked for the Cupra - Urban Silver. I pretty much like all the colours tho. View attachment 4431
Probably gonna get told off for not knowing but I think mine is urban silver...not 100% sure as it was just sold as ‘silver’

Is there another similar to this...if not I’m happy to go with urban silver.

Yeah that’s Urban Silver, you also have Monsoon Grey, apart from custom it’s the only other kind of “silver”...

Personally went for spec over colour, love the monsoon grey but would have preferred alor blue!
