No car should ever be pink ( not even a Force Imdia). Nissan Micras are the most common abomination)

A 964 Carrera RS in Rubystone is a worthy exception...

An audi which isn't white, black or resale grey is a good thing in my eyes

And very very rare
Landrover 90 = Muddy shed spec
Fiat panda = Couldn't care less spec
Landrover ?? = Muddy shrek spec
Unimog 404S = Very slow silly offroader spec
Kubota F1900 = Snowplough spec

A women living near me drives a matt pink full fat Range Rover but I'm guessing it's simply a wrap.

There's a metallic pink wrapped cayenne down here.

There is a deep pink with strong meta flakes Fiat 500 in Dundee which looks awful, might be a wrap too I guess.
Always think it's a strange choice since you can spec them in pastel pink, and the 500 suits pastel colours.

There used to be a Mitsubishi Colt CZC folding roof thing in Dundee in pink with love heart decals on it. Probably the least likely to be stolen car in the city.

Other than the Porsche mentioned above, it might be ok on a Cadillac.

Yeah it's a wrap, and a shocking one at that with the door and boot jambs still white. Darling daughter would agree with the pastel comment as she loves her New Age Cream (hearing aid beige) 500 :blackeye

I try to avert my eyes from the pink one so hadn't noticed the bad wrap :)

At least hearing aid beige isn't the mint choc chip green that seems to be the full on fashion 500 colour at the moment. So popular that they seem to come in pairs :lol:

There's a really camp looking guy in the street next to us with a mint 500. Tbf, also spot him on a baby blue hipster single speed quite a bit.
