Colour doesn't really matter in the grand scheme. Must be the SE spec though and a Saloon.
some of the early mk2's suffer the same as mk1's, rear springs for example were the same up to about VIN #250.

If i was looking, I wouldn't discount a well sorted Mk1 SE.

One from an owner on here has its benefits, all their previous posts can be searched and past issues & problems / fixes identified
