The Blackline is only available in white, black and blue.

That driver must have bought them as an option then.

Yeah, I think the black Neptunes have been available as a cost option for a few months now.

Hi, I have ordered today a Octavian VRS Blackline....could not chose between white and black until two things happened. Saw a white Beemer with black wheels and the dealer told me black was £400 and harder to clean! Ordered white....also I have lived with a white vrs for two years and it always looks classy compared to the other colours ( accepting tastes differ between us all). I have seen a few blue vrs lately and they always look good, I have yet to see a black one that does not look dirty! at the dealers they have a bright green vrs with black wheels...looks very good but felt I could not live with it long term...Dovehouse.

Ps. Now nhave to try and live with the Amundsen satnav, which does not get rave reviews...

Facelifts do not look as good in white or black as they did , if I chose again it would be green or blue

I've had a Black Magic Sport for 5 years and it looks great when it's clean, understated and classy. Don't worry about your choice, you'll love it.

Thank you all for your comments, they really made me think. In the end I have changed my order to Race Blue. What really swung it was the wife saying I don't have enough time to do all the odd jobs around the house never mind spending all my time washing a b••••y car !
