Oryx white gets my vote. Changes from white to silver to gold depending on sunlight. Not cheap tho.

Oryx white doesn't change colour like that, on a dull day it looks just like flat white, on a sunny day it looks great especially if you're wearing sunglasses. At night under some nice led lighting like in supermarket car park it looks brilliant.

It does on my wife's car. At least to my eyes anyway.

@ Daz Auto, thanks for all these pics mate, really helping.  DP Black looks good but don't think I could live with it due to the cleaning demands.  Atlantic blue just isn't for me.

Need to see a good Isaac Blue and Indium Grey to complete the set now
I had a black car - never again. A facelift DPB parked in front of me. The black grill and trim was lost against the black paint. I though it needed more chrome or something. I noticed on luxury German cars they have more chrome to contrast against the darker colours.

Here is the photo Briggsy posted of their Indium Grey GTI -



Here is a photo posted by Wide of his GTI Performance in Indium Grey -

@Matt17121991 Search Isaac Blue in the forum. I'm sure I posted one. There are previous posts about colours, in particular White Silver and Isaac Blue.
