Title: Odd colour for a Miggy
Post by: mantahatch on 20 April 2009, 19:26:54

Can't decide whether I like this colour or not, probably good for hiding any rust spots.

I wonder if the colour had anything to do with it being relisted ?

Nah -- just doesn't look right  :-?

I "don't do" red cars anyway, but some still do look good, not this one, however!

They might have done, but they used silver ones too - my elite was one of them - owned by the Government Car Despatch Agency.

Mind you, the fekkers didn't look after them very well.  >:(

Mind you if I brought home another mig the G/F would kick me out - she's sick of me working on my one as it is!  ;D

i dont think it has that "executive" look in red... would choose the dark green or silvers ones over any other colour

That's an interesting one.... I didn't like it at first but it's not all that bad, certainly something different too!
