I do love that green. Instantly makes it look like a more expensive car.

Definitely a cracking colour...

Read the review of this in the latest Evo magazine, sounds like a really good car to drive and much improved on the standard car, which they described as being a good car, but a bit boring.

The buyer had the choice of wheel colour, he went for black. The bi-colour wheels will be going on our next car, which is being collected today.

I enjoyed driving it, wish we had kept it a bit longer. Bit of a shame it didn't get an engine upgrade, but ACS did such a great job setting the suspension up you don't really notice that it "only" has 300hp. The exhaust was surprisingly sporty too, for an OPF car.

I think the black suited the green very well aesthetically...

I may very well be biased here, but the stock car is plenty quick enough for the UK roads... Like all cars these days, the fun comes when you switch a few switches into the more sporty modes... But, also, in comfort and Eco pro, you can just pootle about when you want to... far from being compromise, it feels like you have choice...

9 out of 10 people that saw it in the flesh agreed with you. Easy repairs too.
