I can see why it has only been driven 24k! Do they give you a free bag to put over your head on days out :)

The A2's lines really suit this colour... definitely a "wow, look at me" tint though.

This car has been for sale on ebay for some time now and despite looking like a 'minter', I guess the "in your face shade" is not to every prospective buyers liking!!

Personally, I would!! :D

I personally really like this colour on the A2. Then again I did once own a citrus (a relatively vile yellow/green) Insight.

One benefit of this kind of colour is that you are statistically less likely to have an accident, as other people are able to see you better (of the major colour groups yellow is the safest, black the least).

I have seen one of these on the road a few years ago, and they do look better than in the above photo.
If i am correct this colour was only available for a short time after the A2 was first released. I am also pretty sure that it was metallic orange.

....is it just me who hates it then? :o

I don't think it adequately expresses the A2's modern lines, and therefore its place in modern society, what with the need for space, economy and style.

I see your point, but I consider the A2 to be innovative, unique, different and funky compared to many "run of the mill" mass produced cars on the road today. The A2 is clearly light years ahead in many respects of car design, but still manages to retain a "cheeky" image. Therefore the orange tint highlights some of this uniqueness that is "A2".

Personal opinion I know!! ;)

Definately, I agree with you, but amongst all that I would have to say 'class' aswell. This colour then doesn't (in my opinion of course!) then meet the elements of the A2 we all love.

I suppose there is 'quirky', but then there is always a Lime Green Smart Car!!
