Paint code is 205-110 for Ixell paint.   I would probably buy a new centre cap because of the badge etc.

Curry sauce or salt and vineger.... I touch up chips with a fine artists paint brush and then polish the paint a few days later with Autogym paint renovator. Another good trick the get paint in the chip is a cocktail stick or pen. Then wipe the excess paint off with white spirit only...

Like you guys I have had mainly Pug hatches in the past 205 and 309s GTis and a 306 Xsi. The 182 doenst feel any lighter under braking at the back under braking the 205, it was the bouncy/ wallowing up and down/botteming out experince that was off putting. The 306 will be more stable than...

Car wash is real no no!!! Mine doesnt really count as it sits in the garage all week so stays clean. When well sealed and waxed, I find it comes up well when washed and sprayed with a quick detail spray.
