Its had no colour change, its still silver!!

 

Explanation:

Upto around 2007, car colours by the DVLA was defined by the colour of the chassis. The Smart Roadster has a chassis with body panels attached, so you don't see most of the chassis. However the bit is visible is the c-pillar section and windscreen surround. There were two options, standard was black, cost-option was silver.

 

I believe Lotus Elises have the same thing on their colours.

So why weren't all Citroen DS listed as black?

No idea! Maybe because none of the chassis is readily visible from the outside? Or rules were slightly different back then?

Frisbe-ing the wheel trims aside, in what way could this car be improved?

The Datsun is a lovely thing, though. In fact I was eyeing it up when it was offered at an ACA sale last week, where it sold for £1400 including fees. Add in the fuel for the vendor's 200 mile round trip to collect it, plus their time, wjat sort of price are they expecting it to make on ebay to justify the expense?

 

I've got nothing against selling cars for a profit. I'm sure we've all bought cars that were cheap with the sole intention of selling on, but shitehawks like this who reckon they can make their fortune flipping undesirable motors on ebay really wind me up. The ad has less information and worse pictures than the ACA catalogue ffs!
