    Many considers the traditional greens paints like british racing green as a color of choice on an english sports/luxury car

    According to you, what english brand is the best suited to sport a nice racing green paint ? Aston-Martin ? Jaguar ? Bentley ? Other ?

    Or maybe one has a special history with green liveries?

    Which shade of BRG? I believe there is a BRG that is slightly more yellow than the darker (deeper) BRG. Knowing the model year of the automobile in question, is this a road car or a vintage race car would also help. I'm far from an expert in vintage paints, but the attached link may show the variances in BRG colors. Good luck in your search.

    I think all three of these are well suited to BRG, just wish there were more examples since everyone seems to do gray or black instead. If things go well for me next year I'd love to order one of the new Vantages, which I'd almost certainly do in BRG over tan.

    Aston Martin with their shade of Racing Green. Lots of history there.

    I like British Racing Green on Lotus cars. Lotus plus BRG = pure love.
