I knew I knew this car, saw you leaving (I was in the storm 200) car looked awesome mate. The wheels and front bumper just make the car.
Needs a meggy transplant now ;)
Yes it did work mate :) we found the play area, saw the birds, went cockering, had ice creams and had a game of super size connect 4 on the lawn of the hall :)
We got back to the car about 3pm to be greeted by another rain storm.
Thanks for the nice comments about the storm (quite an apt name...
Good to see you today Paul and Rob.
And yes was a case of dodge the rain :( and apologies for not being about to much - Oliver was bored from the start so we went around the estate to entertain him.
Great project mate - not sure how I missed it.
Is this the one that was resprayed in a garage? Remember following a thread on clio16valver forum some years ago.
You know me very well mate :) I really want a decent phase 1 172 in sunflower yellow - I have looked at 2 so far and both been dogs.
Thanks buddy. Yes these exhausts do my head in, the trophy needs slightly realigning again!
Yes the small oem touches make all the difference:)

Going rate is £150 per panel so that is bang on the money.
As previously said petrol blue is a very difficult paint to match due to the colour changing pearl in it. I hope he is blending into the doors.
