To get things rolling, here's a poll to show what can be done in the forums. Anyone can set up a poll, so why not give it a try sometime?

OK, advertisement now over, back to business. Let's find out what the most popular colours are. What colour Copen do you have?

Mine's silver with red leather seats. My favourite combination which also seems to be the most common. Maybe this poll will prove me wrong?

I love all the colours although silver's the one for me.

Mine's yellow with a red leather interior. I love subtle and understated, me.

Funny thing is, I always swore* I wouldn't have a yellow one - I could just hear the cries of, "Oi! Noddy! Where's Big Ears?" - but when I saw her I kind of got converted - I wouldn't want any other colour now. I've only had one person so far ask me where my blue hat with the bell on is.


*It's OK, rushmere - I cleared it with my Mum.

Yellow is lovely.. I have never had a yellow car although I've had most other colours in my time.

Aw, thanks, machinehead. It is lovely - I'm so glad she's the car I ended up with.

This is her in North Yorkshire on the Buttertubs Pass (what a road!):

Ours is silver with red leather, but we did have a yellow with red leather until it was squashed by a HGV on the M1. I like both and would probably have got another yellow one if it was available with the 1.3 engine. But the silver one is just fine, we just love having a copen.

Mine's silver - I initially wanted a red one but was told that the last one in the South East had just been sold by that garage the week before...Whether that's true or not I'll never know but I love my little silver car.

Pikachu..your yellow car looks fabulous and I ove the photo in Cumbria. Can't wait to travel a bit further in mine!!:D

Ta! :)

It's worth seeking out good driving roads, it really is. And you've got to drive them - Mr P and I both took No. 1 Son's best mate for a drive while we were there, and thirty seconds after we'd taken off he turned to me with a grin from ear to ear and said, "It's a lot more fun when you're driving!"

That's a lovely photo, it really makes me want to get out in the car right now. Actually, I think I will :)

Thanks, Dave!

It was taken by my son's friend Ross - he went to a lot of trouble, getting ahead of us and lining up his shot before we came round the corner. He took several good photos, but I like this one best.

Incidentally, if you look reeeeeeally closely, you can see little black splats all over the bonnet. I pulled off the road during a rare break in the rain to put the roof down for the photo, and dropped the nearside wheels into a nice peaty puddle. When I went to pull away, I spun the wheels, and dropped a heavy shower of thick black mud all over her - inside and out!!

Well, I've got a black 660cc with red leather seats which looks beautiful. My baby.

Sounds beautiful, too. They do look fantastic in black.

Any photos you could share?

I've just bought a silver with red seats, but it's under serious consideration to get it sprayed another colour. Something a little more unique, but what to go for?:cool:

There was a shocking pink one out there somewhere. Anyway, welcome to the site. Looks like your just in time to enjoy the 'indian summer' weather - i'm sure you will.

Another new owner here :). My copen is black with a red interior. Recently saw one online which was pearlescent white, I thought it looked great.
