I clicked Silver as I wanted to be the only one - but shock horror two other people have the same bad taste as me

Black / anthracite been done to death, white far too clinical, gold is for Subaru's, so its good old silver retro for meeee

That's a hard one, while anthracite has been done to death they still look bloody good. Gold and silver are my favourites and won't go out of fashion. I voted gold btw.

I dunno, when i first saw Euans car i was positive that was how mine would look (black wheels) BUT everybody has done this now, and in reality i am not sure if i like how you loose the wheels, if that makes sense, but at the same time i think it looks hard as fook!

I think black's too dark myself but the anthracite isnt actually that dark imo, white looks good as long as the wheels are done the same coluor as the rest of the car, otherwise the car looks creamy.

the fact that there doesnt seem to be any white saffs with silver wheels, is making me think this might be the way to go
