Exactly - both colours change massively in the light, (and I have never seen a realistic Nardo photo), but like for like, Grigio Telesto is never as light as Nardo can look, and Nardo is never as dark as GT.Gazsouthgate wrote:I had my caterham painted in Grigio telesto after seeing it on the press demo Chris Harris rags around on you tube. It changes hugely depending on the light but never gets as light as Nardo grey. It's also a metallic colour but to be white honest it's never looked anything other than a kind of wet-look Matt. Lovely colour I assure you!

Re: Grigio Telesto
Right team - as requested - I've got a lot to learn...Here is my Caterham Supersport R with Grigio Telesto special order.
You can see an identical spec car, but different actual car, being ragged by Harris here, but be careful, it may make you buy one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htI3weS49cc
One in bright sunlight and one in normal daylight. The bright sunlight is about as bright as I've seen that paint ever, the picture of the rear of the car is more representative.

Re: Grigio Telesto
Very interesting...Caterham charged me best part of £2k for that colour. Mugged. Willingly
Re: Grigio Telesto
Yeah but it's paint, vs vinyl. A good wrap would cost you a significant proportion of that £2k and wouldn't look as good.
I do really love this colour. Can it be spec'd on the C7 from factory then?

Re: Grigio Telesto
A good wrap on a normal car perhaps, but the Caterham doesn't have many panels so I'd expect it to be significantly cheaper. And have you looked at the work of Paint Killers? Their wraps are amazing.FaisalJ wrote:Yeah but it's paint, vs vinyl. A good wrap would cost you a significant proportion of that £2k and wouldn't look as good.

And they're based in my original hometown! Tiny place in west yorks.

Re: Grigio Telesto
Lovely, if I'm not mistaken, I've seen this RS6 near Barshaw Park. Looks even better in the flesh. [SMILING FACE WITH HEART-SHAPED EYES] [SMILING FACE WITH HEART-SHAPED EYES] [SMILING FACE WITH HEART-SHAPED EYES]footsoldier wrote:GT and Nardo, Side by side...
