#1: Authentic white GTi 180? Author: colganraz, Location: LeedsPosted: Tue Dec 27, 2011 9:03 am ---- stumbled over this by chance on the trader this morning
is there any way of knowing if this is genuine white from manufacturer?
according to the register there is only 2 of these in the UK? is that including ones that could have been scrapped

a full HPI check will give the date the car was repainted, and what colour it was originally

#13: Re: Authentic white GTi 180? Author: Howey, Location: Kings LynnPosted: Tue Dec 27, 2011 12:58 pm ---- If you look further down the ad its says "solid paint" just after remote central locking and before steering rake adjustment.

#16: Re: Authentic white GTi 180? Author: m4tth3w, Location: sheffieldPosted: Fri Dec 30, 2011 5:30 am ---- It's been de badged too, while lot's of people de badge car's, one in an iffy colour de badged rings alarm bells.
#17: Re: Authentic white GTi 180? Author: Twidly, Location: Home - Norfolk, Uni - PrestonPosted: Fri Dec 30, 2011 12:27 pm ---- It's not original, you can tell it's pearlescent just by looking at it... as mentioned, Peugeot don't do pearlescent white.
