    Superb looking car and I agree about the colour. Mediterranean Blue is so nice!

    Does it have the standard alloys? I think they look a lot better than the M-Sport options.

    I couldn't not, hard to believe they're only ten years apart. The Looks much older but it has aged well, looked fantastic in and out.

    Vauxhall Cavalier door handles I think, and switchgear from something similarly bland. A good looking car though.

    Didn't meet them unfortunately, I've seen it around a bit but I think they may work at the business I was at.
    I'd have liked to chat about it but I'm sure my OH is glad I didn't get the chance. :pac:

    New the picture was taking during the summer either last year or year before who knows. Unless he used a picture the previous owner took.

    edit: Unless he means he owns that car for a while now and wants to change.

    Got the F Sport paint corrected and sealed... We thought it was solid white, but turns out it was so caked in dirt that it's actually pearl white! :o

    Really wanted the f-Sport (just for the dash!) but couldn't justify the jump in price compared to what I ended up with!

    Beauty of a car though.

    Yeah we got lucky with this one as I genuinely think it's the last pre-brexit priced one that would be found in a dealer! I'm certain we viewed your one, and that was lovely too but she was set on an F Sport!

    Came out seriously well, he texted me saying the pearl was looking great and I was like ehhhh it's solid white though? :confused: Nice surprise obviously. Just a friend of mine, Kill Customs on FB.
