Yea some people can be too opinionated though and should choose there words more carefully this scooter was restored about 15 years ago by one of the previous owner and what you can't see from the pictures there is things wrong with it such as wrong colour trim head set top not fitting correctly etc and the paint work is looking tide now with quite of lot of rust spots underneath the panels and on the bodywork and I like my scooters to be perfect like my others so was merely asking for options should I restore it back to its former glory or something different so I don't appreciate complete twats coming out comments like that !!!

Sorry can't find the code for the metallic blue but it was on a 330d I owned in 2002

is it Biarritz Blue, thats the colour of our 2001 528 sport and it looks similar.

A couple of people have expressed their opinion that this scooter would have been better left un-restored. They didn't necessarily word the opinion well, but i actually agreed with them.
Your initial post reads as though the scooter was in it's original condition. Subsequently you say it has been restored 15 years ago. That does rather change things................

I rest my case M'lud.

You might not appreciate opinions Chris 47, but you did rather ask for it.
