Blue 1.2 16V with 172 rear bumper and cup spoiler, Clio sport stickers in side windows and colour sticker on rear window parked outside Mercury building along with a Meg 225
Well wasn't really impressed with the standard silver bits on the new 200t so with the help of a little Plasti dip (for now) some colour changes
Original when new
then some black
And now
New 200t meets old 182
Well after 7 years 9 months from new and 164890-ish miles time came to pass to sell on........
So here are a few snaps of the cars various stages of individualism over time. No sheep content so most may be sickened to their stomachs, oh dear, what a pity, never mind :nono:
By the way it was...
Well after 241 days since it was ordered I finally managed to pick up the new car - pictures taken after finally getting to hotel in the crappy weather - still its an excuse to give it a good clean.
Slight worry car starting to whine at slow speeds like it has a super charger on (it hasn't ) doesn't get any louder at speed but noticeable when sat in traffic or pulling away

Spotted tonight VA60HAE tear arsing up the 40 stretch behind me to brake hard at the round about to turn towards blakelaw. Sounded ok still looked nice and clean.

It will be good to see some new shapes colours and what people will have no doubt done to them in the media...
