Looks dark red to me....That's not bad, Oxford isn't a million miles away from me. I don't know if it's just cos it's all black but it even seems to have a certain "Teutonic" look about it!

...but also there's something very "workmanlike" about it. Probably just me then

It is a very dark metalic (possibly) cherry/plum red. Still pretty nice looking though, yes, I ageee with you, it does look the part and is a lovely colour to boot!

Just think of Kirsch (which I know they make in the south) when relating it to being Teutonic and dark cherry red! 
As for it looking workmanlike, yes it does, but it could now also double as your pub bike too!!
Seriously though, it is one handsome machine!

Found it
A possitive snip at £2,500!
but then, it is very rare apparently and it looks like the model, or a similar version was used in Le Tour de France in the '20s!:http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=361773571746&globalID=EBAY-GB

Seriously though, if I won the lottery then I'd buy that BLACK 1928 Lucifer (above.... Or is it below?) just for the hell of it!

It would be a challenge accuracy wise, but I bet nobody would bother you!
Cycling along saying

now that would be a great way of stopping cars passing to close and at the same time spreading cycle awareness,yes i think drivers would start to show a bit more respect to cyclists if a few bikes like this where in use even if it where just a few bikes with cyclists going to clay pigeon sport with real shotguns
