Mica Red SVX at Milsons Point station

[Jamsvx]

I have seen this before from the train but this morning was able to get a partial plate:

AET-90M

It definitely began with an A and was black on white NSW plates...looked to be in good condition for all of the 3 seconds that I saw it from the train!!!

Hmmm - haven't seen that one before.......!

Where exactly was it? Was it parked at the station, or on the move? (I know Milsons Point station quite well!)

I call it burgandy but Blake told me off on the weekend since his is that colour and he said that it is called Mica Ruby





Jason, it was parked in the carpark on the left hand side as you pull into Milson Point station heading towards the city - have seen it there before but first time I was able to get a partial rego

Yes - I know that car park!

It is on the same level as the railway line, and directly next to it, isn't it?

I remember looking at that car park while heading into the city on the train each morning..........but I haven't seen it lately - because I have now been driving to work each morning!

G'Day All,
"Ruby Mica, Burgandy", I've seen so many SVX's in this colour I was beginning to think it was a Stock colour unless ordered otherwise
I am also beginning to notice White is popular, but you just don't see enough YELLOW ones!

I am not normally fond of white, dirties too easily, looks shabby if any rust or damage is showing, but I do like the Pearl White SVX.

The paint is opulent, and suits the car. Renault also had an expensive white pearl on their early R5 GT turbo models. Again, it was lustrous and deep, pearlescent as opposed to metallic finish. Indeed, it would not be off beam to think of it as cream coloured, rather than white, a nice warm colour.

Have only seen a few pics of this Ruby Mica colour. Really suits the red and black scheme, and I am envious.

My own black over claret is a lovely colour set, but I have seen it described in many ways, possibly the worst being metallic aubergine.

I'm sorry, James.

You SVX spies are too good. Persist long enough and targets eventually join the forum.

I dont park my claret red ochre much in that car park any more since price went up to $20. Underneath the car park is a little lane that tunnels under the railway line where I can park (4 hr zone). Have only been booked twice in last several months so I have paid $140 which is equivalent of 7 days parking above.

good to know my car is now safely hidden from prying SVXspies on trains

Nice to see that some of the mysteries are being solved

Hi SVXers
We bow are heads in shame and place Newportclaret on the market. Does anyone on this website want to look after her in the next stage of her journey???
