Boy, do we have different tastes! Silver (well, it's really more of a dirty pewter colour, but that doesn't sound so chic) is the current fashion for executive cars in UK, and seems designed to date

I really know what you are saying about green LBC's. I have a 70 MK3 Spitfire and a 71 TR6 that are both Laurel. A factory color for sure but it kind of reminds you of something like "Army Racing Gr
