    Cheers Colin

    Thanks Nich for the links - nice to see if that it has been known to the club previously.

    Only mods I have in mind for now is I'd like to get the dash etc. painted in body colour, and it'd be great to find some blue alacantra seats.
    Maybe eventually refurb the wheels (which are shadow chrome Apex), but they'll be fine for now

    Cheers

    Andrew

    royal blue was a monogram dash option, like you can see in the pic in my post

    that could look good and also have an factory look to it

    Put your location in your profile, it helps to offer advice such as where to get your Apex alloys refurbed.

    Could 180 be the number of saloon mk1s?

    Probably, unlikely to be colour, not 180 Trophy Blue 260's.
