Hello and welcome to AGT. I was wondering how long it would take you to wander over here.

PierresAstina · 28-01-2011, 11:45 PM

Thanks guys and Rupewrecht have met u a couple of times over the years been a long while

Bought it privately and has been well looked after seats carpets and steering wheel had covers on them and all is still like new inside

It has 220kms on it and runs like a dream guy had just fitted 17s only 3 months ago and is a great car for the price i paid ..BP motor 1800 it is auto but at the price couldnt let it go . Has Air Con Power Steer elecs etc , love it fair bit of difference from the old KE Tx3 lol .

One question already what is the name of this colour ? Its blueish/green name of the mazda colour ? Need to fix some little scratches and 2 or 3 clear peels .

Thanks

Pierre

Have a look under the bonnet to confirm the paint code.

Rupewrecht · 29-01-2011, 12:34 PM

Aha, figured i might have met you over the years. But yeah, been ages since i've been to anything FL- related.

Looks pretty clean! Just needs lowering

PierresAstina · 29-01-2011, 09:39 PM

Yup, that's what I told you on FL. Some other BA colours are like that also.

Indigo Blue - Charcole w/ blue
Sparkle Green - Green w/ silver
