GREY is the most popular colour choice for new cars — for the fifth year in a row.

More than a quarter of drivers went for it last year.

Red has fallen out of favour as the UK's favourite car colour with only 136,792 new registrations — the lowest number since 2008 qhidquiqeriqtuprw

That led to 415,199 grey cars being registered, according to figures ­compiled by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders.

Red has fallen out of favour with only 136,792 new registrations — the lowest number since 2008.

Silver cars are also at their lowest level in two decades after being top choice for 12 straight years from 2000 to 2011.

The trend for pink cars has also ended.

Only ten of them were registered last year.

SMMT chief executive Mike Hawes said: “Car colour choice theoretically proclaims something about who we are as drivers.

“And buying a car today comes with many possibilities to customise your vehicle to match.

“The most popular shades remained unchanged for 2022. For those looking to ensure their vehicle stands out from the crowd there remains a huge variety of colour choices from across the rainbow available to suit every character.”
