Post by: Banjax on 27 July 2008, 01:55:22

OK peeps - heres the Elite I bought the other day - feel free to comment!!!

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!

Colour Information Display. Some of the later cars with Sat Nav had full colour displays which can be fitted but are rare and cost a fortune ;)

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.

That IS an interesting colour banjy!?! Know what you were saying now!

Fancy posting the paint code up so might identify, 3 digit - 2 numbers & letter on drivers 'B pillar'. Christ I AM officially a geek :o

Either way, very classy. No offence but what other car looks as classy as that for so little cash!?!  :y

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.

Apparently its a triple layered pearlescent paint, looks kind of like a metallic purple in direct sunlight, lovely smart colour when clean !!!
