Re: COME ON THE GREYs !
Hi Brix, the wheels are TSW Nurburgring and are finished in gunmetal grey matt (factory finish). The strakes are simply painted matt black.

Re: COME ON THE GREYs !
Still looking good Richard - I had to have all the dead flies and crud from the Scottish trip washed off mine - I was having trouble seeing through the windscreen.

Re: COME ON THE GREYs !
She still looks well.
Titanium Grey, bling wheels (set number 6) Now gone but will never be forgotten, sat nav, I-mob tracking, SS Strakes, full set of RB grills, K&N Filter and Borla zorst. Now lowered.
Just ask me where anything is, it will be in the boot!!
Now she's "the reasonably priced car is the star" as driven by Jason Plato on Fifth Gear.

Re: COME ON THE GREYs !
Had a great day at prescott hill climb the other day. The marshals were all legends and got lots of feedback on how to get the best lines through the corners. I only managed to get one of the early runs on camera as the battery died. I was not the fastest or the neatest but did get a mention for best sound
