Default Red 22b ?

I was talking to my boy after picking him up from school and we got on the conversation of favourite cars to which he replied a red 22b ,even though he knows they only come in blue.

My question for discussion is if you did purchase a 22b and did spray it red would it de-value it or would it stay the same price?

De-value I reckon.

I've always said that if I was to win the lottery I'd drop a 22B off at RCM with a blank cheque. Would have it sprayed white with black rotas and an engine spec to rival anybody.

If my numbers ever came up I'd be sending a couple of imprezas RCM's way. It'd be worth it just to tell people you have a cambelt kit fitted that cost £5500 lol

First thing I'd do would be to get a real car replica of lightening mcqueen built, my son would probably explode with excitement.

It would devalue the car by approximately how much it would cost to fix. Full strip down and respray, etc. Plus a bit more. probably £5,000 worth. Plus the rest of us would come round and tear you a new one for such a henous crime against humanity!

I must admit if I won the big one, I'd probably get rid of my Road scooby and buy somethnig a lot more comfortable.


To go with the new house, etc.


Then I'd put a full-on WRC 2006/7 prodrive original car in there. and play at weekends.

Do for a red wrap, not a respray... respray I think would de-value and also alienate a load of potential customers if you were to hypothetically sell
