Chris Harris still rates 1M: "One Car To Rule Them All"

Not sure about his taste in colours though . . . BSM?!!

Agreed black can visually reduce the lines of a car. On the other hand with a spotless car and the right lighting/angles, nothing beats a black car. It's the high risk colour.

Have to agree Ian AW is the best colour and after 7,000kms i still wouldnt trade it for another car.....
