After careful consideration...I would say the colour is "Dark Metallic Chocolate" although it was advertised as "red" - juries still out :)

Pictures are fine.

Your camera will be on the low setting, 5mbp wouldnt fit the screen, they would be massive, My lowest setting is 1MP and they are fine.

lovely motor. Nice colour, looks good with the interior
Myn is oyster, a light gold not quite silver, with  same
Colour leather as yours. It makes the car look i bit
The same inside and out, a bit much, in others words.
Yours is a nice contrast. Lovely. Got tow bar, just
needs a cid and lpg and your sorted!

really nice example. cream interior definitely the best, find with mine its quite difficult to keep clean (result of being in it so much i guess) but when its conditioned and cleaned up looks a treat. good work. nice colour on the outside too, dont think ive seen one like that before.

Colour is known as Persia, same colour as mine.

Its a pearlescent metallic.

Word of warning.......!! Dont use Vx touch up paint on blemishes and scratches cos it looks terrible and is nowhere near the right shade !!

Trust me, I tried it......!! :(

Yep, Persia.
