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

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.
