in. As someone who despises white cars it's not been easy. I'd
forgotten about Cameron green.


Here's a list with photos of all the colours

Paprika and Avocado are by far the best two colours there.


I was thinking Paprika is rather lovely.

When you move it on, what will you be asking? Just out of interest...

I then have a tense 40 minute wait while the MOT tester does his thing.
It's the first time he's clicked the "Before 1975" button on his gas

ROFL...it amuses me as well.


Is that the one marked 'OFF'?
