Default Best colour for fully faired curvy

Hi, first post here!

As title, just bought an SV and I've got it stripped down, in primer ready for a professional respray. It was canyon yellow, but im toying with the idea of a colour change....

So, if I can't make my mind up, what are the most sought after colours?

Cheers,
Southgate.

I would pick, Red or stay with the Yellow as a 2nd choice.

Starting from scratch, you might as well go for a completely non std colour, like green or orange.


It can't be that difficult to change the colour on the log book surely


ETA I meant a proper orange*, sorry 2Hys, but that's ginger.


*like Kwak or Focus or Audi. Or even Dynorod

Changing colour on V5 is easy and free. Just send V5 to DVLA with changes listed.

What do ya'll think of gunmetal grey? Thinking of resale value as well as what I like

Bloke I was speaking to yesterday said yellow ones hold a slight premium - any truth in that?
