[dave]

its GREEN :yuck: :yuck: :yuck:

 

[Tidygirl]

true, but i think with a nice bit of tidying up it will look ok, dont u think? i live in cornwall and its so hard to find one down here, i have travle over 150 miles to get another one, or even look at it!

no its green

 

[Tidygirl]

fair enough, its not ur colour, what does anyone else think?

 

[dave]

but you will be driving along a country road and someone will pull out on you coz it blends in with the hedges

 

[dazzdog]

you know what, i quite like the green on the punto sportings, its different from the oh so common yellow

 

[Tidygirl]

thanks dazzdog, with a bit of polish and some nice alloys i think it will polish up lovely! plus ive been driving a broom yellow car for the past two years, fed up of standing out! want to blend!!

the green on the sportings must be quite rare because i have only seen a few. also i reckon some black alloys on that would look good. good luck on the auction, maybe see it in members motors soon!

wheres tidyboy gone?

 

[sammiboo]

dave you cant comment on green, when your son had a p1ss coloured punto!

 

[Tidygirl]

wheres tidyboy gone?

tidyboy hasnt gone anywhere!! we're still together, been around 16 months now, he is mega excited bout me getting a car as im insuring him on it! as im insured on his bravo! think we will end up swapping for a couple of days! i think it will be a bit different to have a green one, hope gonna see it sunday, doubt i will buy of ebay, he said that he will end auction early if a deal is made, what do u think i should offer if i like it? 1300? i aint a fan of balck alloys im afraid, prefer a nice pair of sliver ones!

 

[dazzdog]

black alloys are the in thing lol, ok what about white? and you wil need more than a pair!

 

[Tidygirl]

you wil need more than a pair!


that might help to have more than 2! i want it to look subtly nice, i do like white alloys but only think they suit certain cars, i appreciate all ur help dazzdog, ur giving me some nice ideas!

[marky23]

what price are you thinking of spending? he has the book price as 2k which seems high to me have a look on auto trader and £1500 is more like it. nice car and nice colour by the way.
