Wanted IB/W but then it got popular all of a sudden... have to play with photoshop a bit but I like black/yellow... 'tis different... might find another weird combo I like, you never know.

Sunroof is just something else to rattle and take away that little bit of handling to put you in a ditch

LMB · Jul 3rd, 2003, 08:57 PM

Dom that spec is nearly identical to mine. Ditch the ISOFIX and your there. Great minds think alike

Martin L · Jul 3rd, 2003, 08:58 PM

Like lemmings you're all following each other down the all black route

LMB · Jul 3rd, 2003, 09:19 PM

What can I say - I set the trends

mark-tifosi · Jul 3rd, 2003, 09:23 PM

looks like i'll have to spec up again soon..

No Sunroof Dom? Dropped the IB?

BM will remember the 2nd time we went out for a drive at the beginning of the year when I commented on his magnesium door panels and how I would've ordered them if the salesman had made me aware!

no, I'm getting black/yellow assuming some barsteward hasn't copyrighted it

may drop the isofix because doesn't it leave holes in the back seat?

I remember

. Two people at the Essex meet this weekend said the same thing. Seems many people dunno about the mag grey 0-cost option.

My salesman said they'd had one car; he wasn't keen on it. I'm glad I ignored that bit of advice. He was right about everything else tho'.

Saw a LY/B MCS today, followed it for a while

It looks cr@p from behind

Too much yellow, needs chrome to break it up.

no the ISOFIX has small flaps that cover the holes.

Dom · Jul 3rd, 2003, 10:00 PM

Hmm... maybe a brighter yellow is needed
