My picture is a clue(LOL)
a Poll for Heidi
a Poll for Heidi
Ooo thanks - just thought be nice to have it all together. I can't keep up with how many funk whites, orange, ye ye green, bossa nova etc! Just wondered how many of each colour LOL!
Good idea! It'll give us a nice cross section of popularity of colours. I've always wondered... (too much time on my hands obviously )
)
Well I've voted! first yellow wonder how many more.......Can only think of benny bee

I cant understand why yellow isnt more popular, its gorgeous. Was my first choice until I couldnt have ivory ambience
I would have had yellow if we could have afford to add anything on, as it was I was lucky to have one at all but I do love my white Bella.
Black on my 500, a total bugger keeping it very shiny and gleaming.
It is washed once a week, but will have a valet including a body wax at one point this year. The fact that my office is situated next door to a cement processing works and two doors down from a steel processing plant isn't helping much either!
No regrets though, extremely pleased with it so far, having done a bit over 4000 miles now.

Think it is quite a bold colour but the car is sooooo funky I think it complements it beautifully!I cant understand why yellow isnt more popular, its gorgeous. Was my first choice until I couldnt have ivory ambience
must admit tho I do notice other makes of yellow cars now , not all in my opinion look good!!!
Jive Blue here
See no one as yet seems to have a ye ye green one... seen one in a dealers, it actually looks good on the car. One i saw had white side stripes too which set it off. Its a very retro colour. I was (slightly) tempted but went with the pack and got white!
Someone definitely had a Ye Ye Green - can't remember who though, but def someone who picked it up in September from memory
We should give em a shout, they need to be out and proud with their colour! Must say i was a little disappointed that the only standard colours were BN white and jive blue when I first started looking. Not because I didnt like the colours, just would have liked a wider range to choose from without paying extra! Maybe its the yorkshireman in me but I feel put out when I have to pay more for something I feel should be included! Always intended to have a white one tho anyway!

I think it was Sussexed (?) and ISUK (not directly his, but it's in the family)
It's Dec that has a ye ye green one I think. Maybe he's voted already though as someone has said they've got a Ye Ye Green on the poll now

Ooo the red is in second place with 5 votes so far. Thought I was being original...alas no!
I want a yellow 500 next! Wanted one this time but the partner wouldn't let me be adventurous. Plus wanted the Ivory ambience and it wouldnt have looked right.
Also gonna get leather seats next time - sounds like I dont love my alfonso - I do though!

When we went to order mine, they had a yellow one with red leather seats, ivory ambience and the italian side strip, ott or what and it was a customer order!!!
Needless to say we chose the black ambience after seeing how it just did not go with the yellow!!

Apart from the side stripes thats my perfect 500, but are you sure about the ivory, I was positive you could only get black in a yellow car?
I have a model here I made around 10 years ago of a 500 (original one) and I sprayed it in broom yellow and it has black and red seats with ivory dash!!!! I think its fabulous.
