Meteor Grey or Graphite Metallic?

Post by **robert_e_smart** » Sun Sep 15, 2013 7:47 pm

Meteor is my favourite series 1 colour. A lot of the launch shots were in this colour. My favourite series 2 colour is Mauritius Blue.

G154UFJ came over to NI in 2007. It has been on the road every year since. I saw it a couple of months ago, and it was looking well.

But I'm not as biased as Jaap...

According to the DVLA site it hasn't been on the road since December 2007.

That's because it was for sale here in the UK in 2007 and then Robert bought it and it went to Northen Ireland. Wether there is a different system I don't know. It was garaged for ages and only done 17 K from new in 2007.

Ahhhh. What might have been!

It is a nice colour Meteor. Certainly has a blue tinge to it.

Matthew your are quite right, my log book says Silicon. Strong green tinge in that.
So Mercury must be the really dark charcoal grey then.
So what's graphite......

Mercury is very dark and almost black as you suggest Russ and Graphite looks like a darker version of Platinum! Regards, Matthew T.

Ah...I know which one you mean now. It is what I thought. So XM greys go like this then...

Meteor is Grey blue
Mercury is Dark Charcoal grey
Graphite mid shade grey
Platinum is a paler silvery grey
Silicone is Green Blue grey
