Had the chance to experience an Allroad at a dealership in Teak Brown, WOW!! that is a colour:confused:.
Also becoming aware that there seems to be a trend here in the Fatherland towards "brown and copper tones" for new vehicles. In particular Merc and Bmw (Gran Turismo).
Is Brown The NEW!! WHITE??

On German Audi Forum some loon is asking for advice on wether a Teak Brown A5 Cabriolet would look alright with a black leather interior and Black roof!!!?!!!

Sorry but that is just so.............! wrong:( (IMHO) personnel choice and all that but goodness gracious that is one way to make sure that it will always be your car;).

Ah you said Bratty seems to be the new trendy colour. A4 Allroad launch pictures, BMW X1, R8 Roadster, just to name a few...
To each his own, I don't mind it in pictures but think I would struggle to leave with it long term. Plus limits your interior choice too...

Teak brown looks nice but I don't think it will be a colour that stays in fashion (!) for too long

Do not want to be the "Bringer of Bad News" but I reckon that the UK will be following the trend (as usual?). At the moment you might fight it (even hate It) But you will be assimulated.:confused:

Choice is in the hand of the person paying the MONEY! Opinions?PAHHHHH!

I remember Morris Marinas and Austin Princesses in a very similar colour. We didn't refer to it as "teak" though :)

BMW Mini now doing a metallic brown which looks ok..just! I think the Germans are colour blind or maybe blind to what is acceptable to the rest of us. Always think Alfa good with colours just iffy with the rest of the car
