Which is the most common coloured Scoob in Britain?

and which one out of DBM and Sonic 74F blue or WR Blue looks the best polished in sunlight?

I personally think 74F blue is by far nicer then DBM but I will let the majority decide.

I would reckon Silver is the most common Classic shape scoob in the UK (dont forget we didnt get Sonic Blue officially, cept for P1's, and a dozen or so 22B's)

The majority of the pre-facelift ones, tend to be silver, especially all of the ones I see

And as to which is best in polished sunlight (I know I am biased)

Yep forgot to add, that the most common colour new age scoob is WR Blue

rarest has to be (for new age) white, green, and dark blue

only ever seen one of each of those

sorry but I sort of classed WR blue in with the Classic sonic blue as it is only a marginal tone change but it is definately not DBM.

Also there were two variants of DBM - Deep Blue Mica and Dark Blue Mica, which were slightly different, but we'll class them together in this case .

voted P1 blue, simply due to the fantastic example that parks in our works car park. Best looking scooby I've ever seen, and a perfect colour. Newage is quite similar but seems a little lighter?

Cheat, getting help from Mods!

Lynne, please separate out the various types of medium blue, i.e. sonic blue, WR blue, ... that should help dilute Wurz's vote

Yeah but no-one knows the difference between the DBMs so that wouldn't work

Cue pictures of Matt's car with Army stickers all over it from last year's NBO

But you're right, the DGM is nice too...

(but do me a favour and vote for DBM )

Jeeeeez I didn't think this would be so hard, green is green whether it is green or DGM

I know there are difference between red and DRM and Green and DGM but the argument is between the light blue of the P1, 22B etc and the DBM/DBM whichever that is.

also only having 10 options is not enough to list all the pedantic subtle colour changes.

The STi7 is not 74F or WR blue but I don't hear any complaints about that they are all basically teh same colour which is why I lumped them in to one pot.

If I vote against DBM will that affect my chances of a paddock pass at the GP?

Actually I think black is the nicest so I guess as long as I don't vote sonic blue I'm ok? I'll withold my vote for now though, just in case and, btw I do accept bribes
