I am doing my Austin Devon Red, i have been busy on the old thing and its looking good i want to spray  the inside and inner wheel arches inside the wings door shuts with the body colour, i am at the point now where i have to decide on a RED.
  Now Having Been Exclusively JAGUAR BRITISH RACING GREEn on all the Marlins this past years, i am out of touch with REDS, so want advice.
    Ever since i saw Steve Greens MK1 Cortina and that rough yorkshire lad asked him what Red is it mister Audi Tornado red was the reply i painted everything RED that colour.
    Now is that still the Red above all other REDS, Or do you know a one i should use instead and seriously take a look at.  What RED! Please.

 Grin Grin Well you are biased  Grin There are lots of reds sickly Vauhall carmine red like one of my marlins is painted in at the moment  Sad It aint nice. I do like audi Tornado but there are others some on old fiestas i dont know the name of and theres a seat colour too looks right But colour charts dont tell a true story if i have some names types of cars they have it on i stand a chance of finding an even better colour than tornado.  Finiky gitt aint i. Grin Its got to be right this car i am only doing it once and i dont intend selling it ever.

Porsche Guards red is quite a popular colour, But I think my favourite factory colour is Peugeot Diablo red (kind of a metallic pearl).
