I'm going to take a different stance and say it might be a difficult one to live with long term. I could be wrong though.

Its differnt and if you want what nobody else has this is the colour.

MIB appears on page 12 of April edition of total bmw can't miss that lovely gen motorsport rear spoiler!

(note to self must stop buying all these magazines=sad!)

MIB lives...............?

I like the blue would look great with cream centred wheels

Correct!

Don't go Blue.It will date before it dries.Believe me.

I used to have a Renaultsport Clio 182 in Racing Blue.





It was a stunning colour to detail, so much depth and clarity.

IMO an E21 would look amazing in this colour, but I can't be sure how well it would stand the test of time. It's certainly not a timeless colour, and has periods of popularity.

thinking Gulf Colours?

Neh, that belongs on a GT40 or a Porsche 917 imo but the Clio is a good example, nothing wrong with that color!

There were blue e21 from the factory.

The Aston colour on the Vanquish is Flugplatz Blue, when I first saw the colour on a Vanquish I though it was brilliant but it doesn't quite have the same effect anymore. There is another similar Aston colour - Elwood Blue.

I never got tired of seeing the orange on MIB, it was a great colour. Personally if it were me I would be looking at orange again, but a different shade to give it some distinction over MIB. If you're still thinking along the orange lines check out another Aston Colour - Flame Orange, It was used on a couple of the V12 Vantage Roadsters.

Should you need any of the paint codes drop me a pm.

Spoke to Aston Martin today and got the code but thanks. (it's electric coral blue not flugplatz but they're pretty close anyway)

If I were starting over and forgetting my predilection for dark blue metallics- I would look at those zany BMW light and bright metallic greens that 2002 and early 3 series came in??...............

needs to be different coluor.
there was only i mib. Mib 11 would be best in another colour that way it cant be compared to mk1.

Golf Yellow.
