Your right that pistachio is a sick colour will look pretty heavy against the black of the engine will define it definately!

Can't wait to see the end mate your car will make alot of VR look like 2.slows lol.

It's definitely supposed to be the same colour as yours, Matty T.
The VR6 colour concept cars were pistachio green, ginster yellow, tornado red, chagall blue and I've seen some black ones too.

Harlequin paint and codes:

- Ginster Yellow - L132
- Tornado Red - LY3D/G2
- Pistachio Green - LD6D
- Chagall Blue - LD5D

The Harlequin colours are different to the Colour Concepts I'm pretty sure, minus the pistachio green and tornado red. The Colour Concept blue was a Jazz Blue? And the yellow Colour Concept is definitely not Ginster - the Ginster Yellow is very vibrant, and the Colour Concept yellow is definitely a lot more paler in comparison.

Took me ages to read all through it, but dam was it worth it.

Awesome build mate and good luck with it.

Yeah Ray, come to think of it, the yellow is a lot more custard like.
Don't want to dilute this thread with my 'conjecture' - there's probably a thread out there that would clear it up : )

Old vortex thread...
