Shuv's Racing Blue 200...................

Tell you what - there's alot to be said for having a winter hack.: Leave it unlocked, jam it in anywhere at the Supermarket car-park, don't have to ever worry over it etc. And as you can imagine i've been tinkering just getting it as good as i can / getting rid of a few minor niggles. rattles etc for me and the boy...

My second (?) day off work in the last 20 years today i should think; as i'm feeling utter crap. If i feel any better over the weekend i'll be putting the Clio to bed for winter. Once i found the energy to even open the parcels....

"See you in May Blue Thunder" :sunglasses:
Hope you feel better soon mate.
Blue thunder looking mint as ever. Hope she’s coming out on the xmas do??
I second that!

Cheers chaps.

My wife got ‘diagnosed’ yesterday with chest and throat infection and possible shingles ! Multiple pills and antibiotics, lots of fluids and bed rest.

If I’ve got that - I might next make an appearance at the same time as the Clio.....

Two guys I travel to college with today both have been off past 2 days with sickness (albeit they didn't seem very sick) with colds/throaty sort of stuff. Really hope I don't get whatever it is (if its anything)

The wheel 'debate' has actually moved forward quite along way behind the scenes.......

Not that i'm any clearer ! :oops:

***Huge props to Mes for his time, thoughts and advice - for which i am indebted.
 
No2 for me - will look awesome.

But got to be said, I know its been harped on about, them callipers need to change colour if/when wheel colour changes. Even if they were black!
 
‘Cheap’, sane, probably the right answer....and my current thinking.

Also utterly boring ! :tearsofjoy:

The car and the colour isn't boring. If you want to paint something do the calipers (racing blue or red if you really want a third colour in there) or give the roof and door handles a glossy black.
 
Shuv, once again, hope you and the Mrs improve asap.

Seeing all the pics together, they all will look really good I reckon.

Gotta say, orange is the one for me. Looks insane. Orange and blue is always a winner. My favourite pair of trainers as a kid were orange and blue. :smile:

It's full on no messing about in your face though.

On the more subtle side, although I'm biased as hell, bronze definitely gets my vote.
