Adam 7 Report post Posted February 4, 2008 Unless i see that car in the flesh or the paint code i dont believe it was laser blue. Laser blue is darker than raven and i think the dealer just got mixed up between the later laser normal loops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adam 7 Report post Posted February 6, 2008 If you compare all of the Ravens on the site they all look different in colour, it depends what camera the pic has been taken on in my eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

renandstimpey 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 Oooohh, I saw an anthracite one ages ago, last year I think. Around Anslow-ish (near Burton on Trent), think it was in August. If I could have had any other colour it would have been that colour! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2001gti 4 Report post Posted November 14, 2008 I thought black was one of the rairest, i got told RED was the colour the car came with for FREE! am i wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam 7 Report post Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) I think you are correct, but i also think the black was a no-cost option as that and the red were non-metallic. The only colours i have seen on the road that weren't a members car or at a show have been black and silver. Edited November 14, 2008 by Adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Defcon5 157 Report post Posted November 14, 2008 I wanted a red one, but was in a rush to get one as I was carless so settled for black. Ive seen more silver ones on the road that any others, but I wouldnt be able to tell you which silvers.Never seen another black one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philplop 72 Report post Posted November 18, 2008 Tornado is darker.Look at the paintcode under your boot carpet or in your owners handbook.Tornado is LY3D I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
