#107: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: LeeThr, Location: North West WalesPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:37 pm ---- Which Red? Diablo Red or Red Red?
#108: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: data, Location: HerefordPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:39 pm ---- Check for overspray and make sure all panels are lined-up - if it's straight and there are no mechanical defects, go for it Also check the underbody if you can - any accident damage usually shows-up on the underside!
One of the 180's I went to see in Cheltenham looked very good, but I could get my finger inside the gap between the door and B-post on one side!!!
#109: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:40 pm ---- I think it's diablo red, I'll go and check now as I can't remember, I've got his number so gonna be giving him a call soon
#110: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:41 pm ---- It's flamenco red, here's a pic of said car
#111: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: LeeThr, Location: North West WalesPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:45 pm ---- Looks pretty tidy, I like you have never been a great fan of red cars, think its seeing what happens to ford red put me off big style, but since having a diablo red pug the colour has grown on me a lot. Even the firedance is growing on me as well. Think ive decided I dont like the boring dull resale colours and would rather something a bit different that stands out but isnt in your face at the same time.
You going to invest in a bonnet bra for this one?
#112: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:48 pm ---- Noooo I don't like bonnet bras at all, and I know what you mean about red it's a marmite colour,I did love the silver of my gti but u don't see too many red 180's around
#113: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:49 pm ---- I'm thinking of a red and black theme will look good, with full sp kit( arches, bonnet vent etc ) to really finish it off, then lower it slightly

Red 180's are rare! Make sure it's PUKKA though mate!
#115: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:52 pm ---- Oh I will data, with so few miles on the clock it can't be too bad, had the cambelt done recently aswell
#116: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: LeeThr, Location: North West WalesPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:52 pm ---- Would save worrying about the stone chips though.
Yer, they do look pretty good in silver, but it is a very dull colour, its resale silver all you ever see. You dont see many 180's around full stop. I think when it comes around to getting my next car I dont think ill be able to choose which colour, unless there's one with something that just makes it stand out from the rest going pick me, I think it will just be print out the adds of each colour and pick one out of a hat haha.
#117: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:54 pm ---- I like your scientific way of thinking, lob them in a hat and eeny meany miney mo haha
#118: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:56 pm ---- And I think next time I hit a road with stones on I'm not gonna give a fool about stone chips, it's either that or drive into a bush and I know which option I will choose next time! Lol
#119: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: Razpulsedj, Location: Partying with the Info ShufflersPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:58 pm ---- Depends what kind of bush
#120: Re: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:59 pm ---- Haha well pointed out, that's a very valid point, if it's a well trimmed one I wouldn't mind lol
