Default Worst colours for a car

What are your least favorite colours for a car? Wer'e talking i'd never in a million years own a car in that colour.

Here are mine and I will not be using the manufacturers official colour names. Perhaps if they were more honest these monstrosities would never have been unleashed on the world.

Hearing aid beige
Barbie Pink
Invalid carriage blue
Mushy Pea Green (Alla Austin Allegro.)

Oooh lets see...

Ark royal grey can't think what car I've seen it on though, might have been Renaults.

Blancmange seen on some older VW Polo's.

Birds eye custurd yellow seen on Saxo's, it's just the wrong shade of yellow for me.

If anyone has seen that one top gear episode with the M3 and the S4. That color M3 was horrible. It was like a mustard Yellow.
