Title: Interesting S2 Colour
Post by: c.a.c131 on September 28, 2012, 06:58:09 PM
I think it's 707 chestnut, look at the rusty wheel nuts on the nice 14" wheels :D and it's only new. Like the Super on the showroom window ;D

Although I'd love a 'new' series 2 super like this personally I wouldn't choose this colour. Doesn't do anything for me I'm afraid. Agreed it's a rare colour though.

It looks a little like this very early S3 132 blue :)

This type of brown was very popular in the late 1970's and early 1980's, it was a big selling with the Leyland cars back then.

I've seen that colour on a few brochure cars. I do quite like red.

Mine's rosso corso I think, it's very nice inside the boot, the outside is quite faded.

The chesnut colour does look good, but i like blue and yellow on the S2's.

The Chesnut or Brown :-\ has to be the worst colour for a 131 S2 Super. That is why I imagine it was not popular  :-\. It did appear on many Fords and various BL offerrings in the 70's and early 80's. Only Beige (not a 131 S2 Colour is worse  :o)

The Kent Green is nice, although rare.

Like Bobby, I favour the Met Blue and Yellow in a S2 Super. However, like many my first choice would always be Met Green with the Golden Velour  ;D :D
