Be wary of Flame Red in future. They look good when cared for but they fade
and are difficult to sell secondhand.

The same goes for all non-metallics

Yep, my Corsa is Flame Red but it has been looked after and is very
bright.

Don't think I'll have too much trouble selling it when the time comes.

Was looking pinky on the bonnet in patches a while ago so a rub of
T-Cut and some Colour magic and it looks like new.

It's hard work to keep it that way but it's worth it and flame red is
definately a colour I will consider again in the future.

I've seen more pink corsas and punto's though than I have in the same
condition as my P Reg corsa.

It all comes down to care in the end. Look after it and it'll look
like new. Neglect it and your car turns pink.
