    It's a "modern" classic. And like Vintage say's... I've been able to drive this one home 5 days after we signed for it, and it hasn't cost me the GNP of Botswana to kit it out the way I want it.

    Seems to be a trend in that opinion re: the graphics. Still not sure. I still think the roof is too much unbroken red.

    Cheers for the comments though.

    Yes, very nice. Love the Chilli Red, though, I'd drop the pierced nose, and put back the original.

    I'd keep it simple, and graphic free.

    And a big up to the fog'n'tint massive.

    In all honesty, I'd have the roof painted black...it'll tie in luvverly withe the wheelarches, black grille and those R105s.

    Have you thought of the all black 105s andy?? imo, they'd look great over red calipers! :)
