Practical Classic's newest blogger backs brown →
Brown is due a comeback, and the cars we have today are ideal to do this with.

(Seems like this wasn’t a recent link but at least a year old and Practical Classics have deleted/lost their blog since I posted the link. Here’s the same content on Sam Skelton’s personal blog.)
