    How about nimbus grey, the dark grey that Audi TT's come in?

                Looks like Polished primer
                but it is a really sweet colour, look mint on a mk1!!!

                  Primary colours look much better (Mars Red, Sunshine Yellow etc)

                  Like thongs.

                      Subtle ones: black, white, silver, light blues, grey. I also prefer solids on Mk1s - even though mine is painted in a metallic

                      I think the bright coloured ones look rank, but there are a few exceptions, as always

                      P.S. There are quite a few nimbus grey Mk1s on Vortex - they don't actually look very good IMO I was going to paint mine this colour, but searched around and wasn't impressed in the end!!
