Is this breeze blue?

The reason I ask is because someone posted a pic on here (not that long ago) of their SR which they said was breeze blue, but it looked a hell of alot darker than mine (Had the black trim along the bottom of the wings/doors and SR logo on the doors IIRC < could be wrong)

[craig green]

yeah I reckon.

[wwmnw]

Did SR's only come in this blue?

[amggsi]

Hard to tell for sure from the picture, but it looks like it to me.

Flairs/SR/SRi's are the only models that came in Breeze Blue.

[wwmnw]

What about early MK2 SR's (1990) would they have come in Laser blue? That seems to be round about the darkness I'm thinking of!

[SRimon]

No, MK2 SR's in Blue would only be Breeze.

Having seen lots of breeze blue cars overs over the years (and having one to compare with), I would say most re-sprays come out way too dark and the paint doesn't age well with lots of cutting and polishing - my roof was going white before it was painted!

So true. Hence why when i had my repaint, a good coat of laquer was applied!!

Yeah, when mine gets painted again it will be laquered. Oddly only the factory paint went off colour and thin, the respray is the same as when it rolled out nearly 12 years ago :)

Nope, only the 3 models I listed came in Breeze Blue, Diamond came in Lazer Blue.:thumb: Breeze Blue was a mark 2 only colour as well.

[wwmnw]

So wait, mine is breeze blue but its faded as ****?

[bazil]

No it's just a pastel colour lol

[wwmnw]

:(

[bazil]

Meh, G3, G10, high gloss FTW breeze blue is like Carmine red, fades quicker than a fat man falling down.

[wwmnw]

:cry: I thought blue wouldn't fade so bad as my red Nova is fading very quickly and very badly on one side due to the sun shining on it in the morning lol

[bazil]

Turn it round lol lol
if you need SR stickers as in gen GM I can link you

[wwmnw]

In time mate, not on my list of priorities at the minute.

[bazil]

Have you got a build thread,?

[Lynsey]

My old mk2 was *ahem* Porto Blue and it wasn't faded :S
