The way it is in the picture is how it is right now. he is edging closer though. I think he has been fitting the interior. David Wilson has been building a custom loom for it and that has really set things back as its taken ages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben_O Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Found some more pics of the Cadbury purple mini on my laptop I had forgotten what a gorgeous colour it is and infact am now thinking I might paint my W202 in it Skizzer, Amishtat, warch and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say hello to Carl for me the next time you see him, tell him to drop in when he is passing next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill probably go down and see him next month so will pass on your message and say hi for you. Cheers Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Ben Not been on in ages, the hillclimb mini shell is still sat in a container and I had to sell most of my spares due to losing storage. I think the love has gone on that one unfortunately. I keep looking at minis but prices have gone a bit stupid. I need to sort the Capri out, I think I will just get it in some sort of paint even if it’s a panel at a time and then get using it. But I need decent weather to spray outside so will be next summer at earliest now. Mechanically it’s ready to go. Ben_O 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyW201 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 My old Allegro, after all, who doesn't love a bit of Antique Gold? Our previous Octavia, in Dynamic blue, a change from the usual grey, silver and black most other Octavia's came in (says the guy who later bought another Octavia in black) Yoss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorrisItalSLX Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I’m not a fan the blacked out chrome, but the paint looks grand. But more on topic, there are not enough gold cars these days. BorniteIdentity, warch and Roobarb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roobarb Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Sat in a remote hotel in Hamburg, wondering what to do with my weekend. Came across this pic I took on the ‘last day of Autumn’ in MN and it made me smile. Can’t wait to get back and get working on it again!

volvoman Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Oooops...posted the wrong pic up. This was the pic i should have posted - I looked at a Saffron T5 C70 Coupe down Eastbourne, a few years ago. It was advertised as "pristine"..................but it was far from feckin pristine! So it stayed in Eastbourne. paulplom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
