I did too mate... I needed to get a few miles on it bed the brakes in for the MOT.

The colour is Rover Carribean Blue (Pearlesant). Dark blue... but in sunlight its got tiny green speckles. It was a nice easy colout to spray... First coat dries dark green... the second coat dries a greeny blue... The third coat dries the proper shade.

Thanks for the kind comments.

Cheers. LeeLee
