Don't like the colour grey much, can't wear it.

But a pale grey does look smart on walls... I'm assured grey is the new magnolia doncha know

Re: Grey is the UK's favourite car colour for the first time

When we were choosing our car I sat in the demonstrator in the showroom, it was grey, mrs p said I looked washed out in it ( must be my grey hair, ) so we bought white instead..although I did like the grey..

Re: Grey is the UK's favourite car colour for the first time

Car makers are charging over £500 extra for grey paint on new models
https://mol.im/a/6606981



Grey was the most popular new car colour last year for the first time on record
Was marginally more popular than black and white, which have dominated for last 9 years
Grey was most popular, it's also an expensive paint option, our research shows
Most manufacturers demand at least £500 for the cheapest grey paint option
Grey is the new favourite colour for car buying Britons.

According to the latest official stats, more than a fifth of all models registered in 2018 were grey.
But exclusive research by This is Money shows there's a high cost to pay if you want to be on trend. Britons have to fork out over £500 in most cases for grey paint on the most popular models.

A few grey shop fronts in my town. They look awful and should be on the Schitt thread.
It's a passing fad. I am just waiting for all these creepy grey houses to become really dated. Grey is never anything other than dull and gloomy.

Bloody hell! I thought our dealers were thieves asking $500 for a non white paint job on a new car but yours are twice as dear. That is daylight robbery.
