Thread: Blue 109?

That blue was one of the colour option's in the UK from about when the 86" was first produced.

Hmmm. The photo in my garage makes it look grey. It's actually a pale and very faded blue. Here's the photo from the eBay ad that shows the colour a bit better:

It'd be interesting to find out the colour goes back to Navy colours. Anyone know whether the Navy had S1's in blue? It's unusual for an S1 to have the fancy chrome wheel trims, so wondering if maybe used for special occasions and parades and such like??
Sorry for the threadjack. Just seemed related enough, but I'm happy to delete the post if you prefer.
