Not really my cup of tea with a blue interior and the bright woodwork. And what a price!

Blimey that was a brave choice of colour combo for the original purchaser!

Only seen that colour once before ... think it might have been on a C43?

Big money for a 320.

Paintwork colour wouldn't be my first choice, but I could live with the blue interior if it wasn't for the wood trim. It looks more like Bakelite ( polyoxybenzylmethylenglycolanhydride) from the early 1900's and would have to go

Really not a good colour IMO and pricey me thinks?

Brash , overstated , in-your-face colour scheme. Love it !

I must admit, I do like to see rarer colours, whether I like the colour or not! The big brother of this car attended the national SL day at Blenheim Palace this year, and I think it was awarded the best 129 on the day, looking great in the flesh. It was also unofficially mentioned that there was believed to be only one other in the country in this colour - don't know if this was referring to a 500 or 129s in general.

Like the body colour, but it just clashes (darling!!) with the blue interior or softtop. Really like the blue interior on it's own (go the same in my S210 (Galaxy Blue?).
Hate the wood trim !!

I really like that colour, but the wood would have to go and a black interior would work better than the blue. I've seen much worse colours on r129s.
