Boring Black

My Discovery is boring black and I'm a bit fed up with fitting in with the crowd, I don't want folk to think I'm as boring as my paintwork. Can anybody recommend anything other than a change of colour to liven things up a bit, i.e. white stripes etc. My 90 is silver and has black tyre track stickers that break the plain paintwork up and make it more interesting.

Nothing boring about black,  infact black is this years new err... black

I like black, which is why my 90 is... infact, anyone who paints anything black is a genius :)  (thanks Tim)

Sorry Tom, but would have to disagree with you on this one.

I used to have a metallic black Lotus Cortina 1600E when I was a lot younger and that looked the dogs hairy bits.

I probably wouldn't have a black one by choice today as I don't do cleaning...., except in Fords ;-))......, no, not the motor company..... ;-))

Hello Tom
I've had black cars before as well, I wouldn't touch another black motor. They show every mark and speck of dirt (pristine road going motor that is) and are impossible to keep clean. I think you could be in danger of upsetting owners of black 4x4s though if your not careful. Have you thought about zebra stripes or just loads of stickers, that way you give your motor the individual one off look that I think your after. I think somebody else on this forum has applied black camouflage.

I still think just plain shiney black on a 4x4 looks boring
