April 12, 2016 by

The Vauxhall Insignia聽and聽Insignia Sports Tourer estate聽are the brand鈥檚 answer to the likes of the Ford Mondeo and the Mazda 6. If you鈥檙e looking to聽buy one, the聽paint colour is a vital聽decision and聽can affect how often you鈥檙e cleaning your car and how easily you鈥檒l find its next buyer. The Insignia and Sports Tourer come in a variety of trim levels, with a similar palette throughout, though the high performance VXR Supersport drops some paint options. Often the various choices can seem overwhelming, but our colours guide, with relevant prices, is here to help. Our car paint types guide聽can help you work out the difference between solid and metallic paints. Once you鈥檝e chosen the perfect shade, use our Vauxhall Insignia and Insignia Sports Tourer configurator to get a great deal.

Solid colours

Power Red 鈥撀犅0

This bold pillar box red聽is a聽good聽choice if you fancy聽some colour in your life. Considering it鈥檚 not a monochrome shade, it might take a little longer to sell on than a subtler colour. It should do an average job of hiding grime between washes.

Royal Blue 鈥撀犅0 (Not available on VXR Supersport models)

This deep blue is another great choice if you want a little colour, but don鈥檛 want to stick out in聽a crowd. Blue is one of the聽most favoured car hues on the used market, so selling on should be easy. As a darker colour, it鈥檒l hide dirt fairly well before needing a wash.

Brilliant colours

Summit White 鈥撀犅275

This pure聽white is a great choice and is聽the nation鈥檚聽favourite car聽colour. Used buyers will be happy to choose this colour so聽reselling should be a piece of cake. The inevitable downside, though, is the frequency with which you鈥檒l be getting out the bucket and sponge 鈥 white offers no hiding place for road grime.

Metallic colours

Aurum Green 鈥撀犅545 (Not available on VXR Supersport models)

This聽pale olive green has聽slightly grey tones and聽manages to be unusual but not garish. It should sell on fairly promptly and will hide dirt for a long time thanks to its almost khaki hue.

Carbon Flash 鈥撀犅545

This black will give your Insignia a seek finish and will聽be ideal for company cars buyers. Black always sells briskly, so there鈥檒l be no worries on the resales front. While darker shades generally hide dirt, black bucks the trend and will require frequent scrubbing to keep it looking good.

Sovereign Silver 鈥撀犅545 (Not available on VXR Supersport models)

This light silver is unlikely to offend anyone so you鈥檒l easily find a purchaser when you need to sell it on. Keep it clean, however, because motorway聽grime will show up very聽quickly. You might want to think again if your mileage is high or if you regularly use rural routes.

Shiny Rock 鈥撀犅545

This is another silvery colour that鈥檚 a tad darker than the Sovereign shade described above. It鈥檚 a sought-after colour so you won鈥檛 be hanging around for a buyer when you want to sell your Insignia on but, like most other light colours, will need lots of cleaning to keep it looking sharp.

Flip Chip Silver 鈥撀犅545 (Not available on VXR Supersport models)

This steely silver is also quite light 鈥撀爈ying somewhere on the spectrum between the two shades mentioned above with a hint of blue. Equally, while resale should聽be fairly easy, you may find yourself on cleaning duties more frequently than darker shades.

Pearlescent colours

Emerald Green 鈥撀犅545 (Not available on VXR Supersport models)

This rich green is an intense shade that鈥檒l give your Insignia a more distinctive finish than black or grey. While green isn鈥檛 the most聽popular choice for used buyers, this聽shade is聽smart and tasteful so shouldn鈥檛 be too tricky to sell. What鈥檚 more, its darkness means grubbiness should stay hidden for a while.

Dark Sea Blue 鈥撀犅545 (Not available on VXR Supersport models)

It may have dark in its name but this blue聽is actually relatively light. Blue typically sells well, so we don鈥檛 envisage any difficulty reselling this colour. In terms of hiding dirt, you may find grime makes its presence felt more swiftly than a darker colour.

Macadamia 鈥撀犅545 (Not available on VXR Supersport models)

This is rich espresso brown will be excellent at hiding聽grime so will require only the bare minimum of聽car washes. It鈥檚 not the most common car colour around so could be great if you fancy something more interesting than black or grey. Brown tops few聽favourite car colour lists, so selling on might take slightly longer than a more common shade.

Asteroid Grey 鈥撀犅545

After monochrome, grey is one of the UK鈥檚 fastest-selling car colours. This mid-spectrum version, with hints of brown, ought to be no exception to that rule. Its darkness means you shouldn鈥檛 have to frequent your local car wash too often.
