Is it a total faux pas to change the paint colour of a moggy?

Noooooo it's your car! Paint it whatever colour you like. We're here because we love them and want to keep them on the road, whatever the colour. :D

Your car, your choice of colour! There are plenty in the standard colours so its nice to see something different.

I'd agree with Dale, were it my car to paint -- maybe a deep metal purple? :D Personally, my favorite color (of the traditional colors) for a Minor is the old Trafalgar Blue, but mine is Maroon B and I love that too. The dark green, whatever it's called, is nice. But you may think about a metallic, like Dale said, or any number of other options -- you can do anything with modern paints! Make it look like a dragon if you like! 8) :D But whatever you do, if you do it, make sure to post photos on here! Nothing makes us happier than seeing each other's Moggies. :wink:
