you mean the carbon mirrors ye-? had to have them, the white ones just looked daft when i put the p1 splitter and v6 spoiler on!! not the best when reversing though not muvh visibility, but then you gotta make some sacrifices if you think its worthy!!!

NO guys there is only one colour for a classic
Uk spec micra green with gold wheels
Had mine for 11 years since new and love the colour














As hard to keep clean as black but when it looks as good as that ,well you just have to polish it every week before it goes back into the carpeted garage

Got to agree with others and say White. Also I think it really shows the sharp lines of the classic really well.

I'm not sure what it is called but there is a UK colour thats like a metallic burgandy colour. I've only ever seen a couple of them about.

Failing that buy a Sonic Blue RA Ltd - my turn to be biased

Someone will put me straight but did they do white UK cars. Don't think I've ever seen one or are they just really rare.

**** - I said I didn't know what is was called

Now I see why everyone was recommending it!! I thought Mica Red was the bright Red you see on imports - my mistake.

There is also a funny metalic lilac colour that was availiable on T2000's. Not my cup of tea but also rare.

Yes. A Shaun in DSOC had one and stuck STI badges on it and fooled everyone for ages. Wayne in DSOC has a UK Classic Wagon in White. All the rest in the club I can think of are imports

lol I'm not sure whether it IS Mica Red - hence the "?" and ""... I, myself, was posing a question.


You could be well right on the JDM bright red being the "Mica" colour, though...
