I had a smokey dohc Sierra years ago.

It had to have the mintest original paint I have ever seen on a car for its age.

The depth in the smokestone paint is awesome, can look all sorts of colours from different angles (which showed on my MOT reports over the years LOL)

Always wanted to either drop a YB in mine or find a equally mint genuine Cosworth in that colour but there not so easy to find.

I'll dig out a pic

I think smokestone is one of the best colours, we all ways had people compliment on my missus cossy, caused some hassel with notts police- they always instisted the car was black and wanted to know why it came up as blue when they ran the details through lol.Car still looks sweet zee, wish it was still sat in my garage

My XR4x4 is smokestone and def think it's the best colour. Bought it years ago and always wanted a smokestone one but knew chances of actually gettin the colour i wanted was low cos was gonna buy on how good the car was not colour. The guy advertised it as grey, was soooo happy when saw it and was smokestone!!!

Sadly, it's on it's last legs now, but am having jimboxr4x4's tasmin blue xr4x4 with 24v cossie engine cos he's just upgraded to a full cossie!!
