Default What colour saph?

Ok, i'm thinking of a 2wd saph for my next car. Can finally get a half desent insurance quote on one! EscCos is stil out of the question at the moment!!

Looking for a true minter with under 80k on it. Not to fussed about the colour as i like most of them but i'm after 1 of 3 colours! That Moonstone Blue, Magenta or White! Probably goes in that order for me!

What you reckon out of those 3?

Theres a 320bhp white one round my way with 62k on the clock servived and stamped every 3 months for the last 4 years. Done 2k miles last year, mainly stays garaged! He was thinking of selling in few months time and was going to put it up for 7k, so thats why i've set 7k as my highest mark as his is minter than mint can be!

PM me some pics & info though

I do love the black ones but my last two cars have been black so fancy a change!

Greys not to bad, don't like green or dark blue really!

Would love a yellow one!
