Yes, it is quite dark, and to be honest it almost put me off buying it, as in M-Sport guise there's not much chrome to offset the very dark blue colour. Given a free choice, I probably would have gone for Silver or Grey. But this colour was the only one the dealer had with the extra pre-registered discount, so I took a chance, and it is growing on me.
When it's dirty, it does look a bit dull, almost like a matt dark blue, but I'm hoping it will be more "colourful" in the summer, when I can keep it clean, and the sun's shining a bit more.
Under artificial light, the metallic (Xirallic?) effect really brings out a much stronger blue - almost a purple to my eyes - see below (apologies for crappy phone pic):
