Pacific Blue and mud too... but I added lightness today, I cleaned it, but it won't stay clean long. Very dirty roads in 'tractor land'. :(


I saw a silver car with a blue hard top yesterday, pity you wasn't there you could have swapped :)

Must have looked very top heavy ! Don't even like blue on blue, looks too much like MX5 .. :smt078

Silver roof on blue is a Lotus colour scheme, you should know that ... :lol:

My 'hard on', as Geoff called it, has been parked on the SORN SE since returning from Duxford and haven't had to put the hood up yet. Lovely and sunny today so didn't even need the heater ... :bananasex:

Jim you missed a mustard yellow S2 with only 29000 on the clock and my black SE in the car park to the right as you enter Goodwood, I think the show is getting to big now.
