My dad always said don't buy a green car, they're unlucky...
The first brand new car I ever bought was,,, green!
In the first week of ownership I got rear ended at a roundabout by a distracted mum driver.
Within 6 months I got hit by a wayward articulated lorry, removing front bumper, nearside wing and door mirror...
Within 2 years I had the rear door stoved in (whilst parked) by an OAP driving a courtesy car from a crash repair company..
5 years into ownership a learner driver T-boned me at a roundabout, destroying the nearside rear quarter, alloy wheel and suspension...
I still love the colour green on cars and it looks especially good on the RC...
