Official colour swatches.

Think they may have just been polite acting like they knew me . Car sales is a job that once you're in it you're hooked, well I am anyway. You need to be able to deal with the highest highs and the lowest lows in the space of an hour, if you can deal with that then you'll be fine.

sounds like my job

 

[Halliwell Jones Chester]

I have been in sales for the last 30+ years but always assumed car sales didn't pay very well.

It all really depends on what you define as not very well, also it's how much you put in like everything in life. Other bonus is car schemes which help towards your earnings.

I never have to pay for car insurance, MOT, servicing, negative equity, tyres.

Well if Halliwell want to setup shop in Melbourne, gimme a call - I will look after your customers for you.

On the YouTube meeting that Mark Evans had with the crew including Mr Tennant early days, it was mentioned that they were wanting to setup rural agents who would go and take the cars out to farmers properties etc, and take the car for a drive on their local terrain. Has that eventuated in the UK at all - or is it assumed that as agents that is what you will do?

Yes
I guess it also depends on where you are at in your life as well.
Most important is to enjoy your work.
If you don't then you take it home and it impacts your private life, which then impacts your work and the spiral only goes down.
Money isn't the most important thing in life.
One day I will walk into your showroom and shake your hand. then put a beer in it.

I will be taking cars to the customers house, farms and so forth. It's a model that affords the time to do this as the numbers aren't as large as say BMW. The idea is that is Agents will do similar base camps as what INEOS have been doing themselves.

Well at least it's what I would like to be doing for my customers anyway.

@Pipm4000 @rovie picture of them inside and outside. Hope this helps.

Perfect there is a contrast - I have Donny grey with the black roof and red chassis, hopefully will look okay.

Donny gray looks like black on the vehicle but when you see them side by side there is a huge difference.
I have Donny Gray with a black roof on order

Please can you put the Scottish White swatch next to a pure white object? I'm 99% certain the Scottish White is actually not too far off the traditional 'Limestone' that LR used for its series vehicles in the 60's/70's which is a good thing in my book.

@G-Man the wall is Pure brilliant white Dulux paint for reference.

 

[Tazzieman]

If my choice is "Mushroom" then that "Scottish White" is haloumi. Or at the very least , vanilla!

 

[ECrider]

think that swatch has a kidney problem

 

[DCPU]

Reminds me of the colour of the white extraction fan vents in my local pub when you were allowed to smoke indoors

 

[grenadierboy]

Scottish White is certainly creamy - like the whole bottle!

Thanks, that confirms it: Creamy goodness!

 

[grenadierboy]

Of course the swatch looks super creamy against a pure white background.

Out in real life, in the sun etc. it will look white with a touch of creaminess

 

[Halliwell Jones Chester]

Trying my best to get these colours to show properly is a nightmare, especially for a car salesman wall again is pure brilliant white and the colour of the woodwork below is Farrow and ball “off white”. Hope this helps a bit

 

[Krabby]

Great job trying to show the colors in their purest form. Seeing them all has definitely set my mind on the silver!

 

[Greg]

That silver certainty picks up all the blue in the room
