Silver good for min maintenance.

Black if you like washing and polishing.

Plasma Blue is probably somewhere between the two.

Glad you got sorted.

Silver a bit boring these days surely though always looks pretty clean. My car is black looks great clean but looks dirty very quickly. I like the plasma blue and the san remo red, but then it is easy to spend other people's money! Are they charging you extra for metallic paint?

Go with the blue

It's different and will look good there was a picture of the one on the net a while back and it looks great

Black is hard to keep clean

lol no, But as you know i spoke to 3 peeps at Im group and this week 5 Scooby dealers and once youve collated all that info and not just read whats here.

Its not as bad as one would think, Ok not good but if driven right and stuff the percentage chance of it happening is slim.

thats only what ive learnt this week and last, so dont discuss it LOL but im satisfied that the truth is out there ( x-files) if you step outside this forum and each owner whos engines blown is Honest at the history of it.

Some have had it bad, but then again all manufacturers have friday engines.

I am sure your new car will be fine

Keep us all informed as to how you find it once you have done a few miles.

The red flash you will see overtaking you at 40MPH will be my Civic diesel ....

Good luck with the car .... all £33,000 of it .....

Nice One!

I genuinely hope you enjoy it ... and you will ... money is just a group of random numbers you convert into things to make you smile

i was told that the HT auto ones painted and fitted would be around £900 at Abergavenny No reflection on the make of the spoiler but I thought the Spoiler "Spoilt" the car and they would have to pay me £1,000 to fit one.

although a nice descreet low level spoiler may aid in the high speed braking

Hi Mike, no CR couldnt nail the finance, and neither could the other guys, they all were shocked at how they got the the figure, I questioned the Sales Manager at where im getting it and it was all OK, so cant understand how the others couldnt nail it.

The garage im using is MKAR Rochdale.
