So when I put my desposit down, in a what I would call an impulsive trip to the dealer, I was told by the sales rep... maybe just giving me more of a nudge to get me to buy it... but he seemed to think, whilst keeping an eye on VISTA, that there weren't even > 50 need for green cars ordered in the UK. I purchased mine just after they discontinued the colour. So my question is, is this true or could there be more? I don't want to feel like an idiot if people ask the question... haha

Put it this way I was the only NFG at the ford fair last year. I made it my goal to find another one but to no avail. I would love to know the total of them purchased in the UK along with the other colours.

Imo the need for green is the nicest colour they have done.

I wanted NFG but the time just wasn’t right for me to buy. If I could have found a dealer car in the right spec when I was right for buying, it would be mine now ... :like:

Other than than that I’ve seen one around the Haydock area and the other that was in a dealers in Bolton seems to have been sold now - maybe it stayed local, maybe it didn’t ... ? (Custom pack 2 / A10 / Magneride) :like:

I want to say it was over 100. I can't be SURE but I think it was a little over 100.

There was a post on here literally years back now, where the figures were broken down; colours, manual/auto, V8/EB, which is what I may or may not be remembering correctly.

CO was discontinued in fairly short order and you don't see a lot of them out and about so I expect NFG to be the same.

Don't understand Ford's reasoning behind their colour choices whatsoever. OW was one of the least popular choices yet when they re-jigged their paint choices they dropped CO, kept OW AND added another shade of white! WTF?!

I could easily believe that. I’ve only seen one other Guard Metallic car in the classifieds. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s less than ten in my colour.

Fairly sure there were 150 COs registered and one was reportedly totalled, however imagine one or two more have fallen sinc then.

Nowhere near as popular as Old Man Magnetic or Dog Dick Red :wink:

Things I will never understand:

1. How the stupidest man on the planet became president of the USA.

2. The popularity of OMM and DDR.

I'd wager Crimson red is possibly the rarest colour in the U.K.

Never seen one "in the tin".
