Colour doesn't really matter in the grand scheme. Must be the SE spec though and a Saloon.
That is my mkI to a tee you are describing hmm with the 260's isn't the mkII's that have fan problems?

Only downside to a mkI over the mkII is you don't have cruise control in the mkI unless you are lucky like me oh and the mkI's have the nicer (imho) rhodium dash. I also think the mkI looks more aggressive when the mkII looks more like a bmw with the headlights...

Don't get me wrong i love both and would never turn one down and would even be tempted towards a mkii for some of the colours but something always draws me back to the mkI.
