The one on the right looks darker blue

MatBrown
12-02-2005, 02:31
Which would make the one on the left Monaco blue.

I think its just because 123 is dirty, and the light.

Enid
12-02-2005, 10:03
123 was dirty at the time. Also mine on the left had just been washed and waxed, 123 was also more in the shade than mine. But yeah I though the looked different colours for a while! I though monaco blue was darked than 449?

Enid

KS, will get you some pics. I live in Bedford by the way.

Enid
12-02-2005, 10:15
Damn I'm paranoid now, the more I look at those pics the more I think mine is the wrong colour. Is Monaco blue darker or lighter than 449?? :cry:

big hp
12-02-2005, 11:35
Darker.

Monaco blue is a LIGHTER blue. The one on the left looks monaco blue in those pics.

KingStromba

enid add me to msn and send me some pics and history.

Enid

The thing is, my willy has the original decals on while Bens old car has got the newer decals with the solid blue background so they must have been replaced hinting that maybe the car has been resprayed??

Bens car looks a similar colour to the Willy 3 that matt posted above.

Enid
12-02-2005, 15:57
KS, I'm at work at the moment, will add you when I get home.

Could be lots of things, but, if the stickers are wrong on the 123, then it's been painted.. in which case, there's no use comparing yours to it.. as it'll be different.

looks like a trick of the light mate! dont worry! and as far as i can remember mnonaco blue is lighter,and has a sparkle in the paint when its caught by the sun!

I wont sleep tonight lol

Hehe, photo's are crap.. really..

http://cgi.nickywitts.plus.com/uploads/medave3.jpg - that photo, to me, makes yours look right.

But, we could be here all week.. and we'd be no better off, unless we all saw it in proper daylight.

Enid
12-02-2005, 17:22
Look at the colour of the wings mirrors on both cars, they look the same to me???? But the body work looks different, this would imply that 123 has deffo been resprayed and the wing mirrors left untouched.

KingStromba

Ben had the arches and rear quarters painted for sure as it was rusty when i saw the car.

By the way with a craft knife you can make the new decals into the old decals. :wink:

Smokey McPot
12-02-2005, 21:22
123 is mine, all mine :D

Its had the rear quarters done, and according to Ben and the fullr reciept list i have, its not been sprayed anywhere but the arches :)

Ian was a bit cleaner than mine, as he said.

Hello btw :D

Enid
12-02-2005, 21:29

Ben H was said that the front bumper and bonnet were resprayed on 123, makes sense a little more now.

Smokey McPot
12-02-2005, 22:08

KingStromba
12-02-2005, 22:26
Smokey, you are lucky getting a Ben h car.


He must lose so much on all his cars. That fiat coupe was spotless

Smokey McPot
12-02-2005, 22:52
i know, its in great condition. although its delevoping rust on the drivers side rear quarter again. Will get it replaced in the summer.

i dont think he lost a lot of money on this however ;)

He's just bought a 172 :)

KingStromba
12-02-2005, 22:54
Is it still completely standard?

Smokey McPot
12-02-2005, 22:57
apart from a piper x induction filter for the winter and De-cat pipe im fitting tomorrow if i have time. Yup :)

I had the de cat on recently before an MOT and it was nice :)

KingStromba
12-02-2005, 23:02
I know ben went to alot of trouble even to fit the original stereo

Smokey McPot
12-02-2005, 23:03
which has broke :(

i've gotta take it out and check the connections, but i think something has died in it, it just makes a bleep and popping noise :(

Its a Williams 3 stereo.

KingStromba
12-02-2005, 23:05
Chuck it and get a replacement

There are a few around i think big hp had some.

Can i ask what you paid for the car and what mileage it had?

Smokey McPot
12-02-2005, 23:15
£5250 63k

I'm gonna see whats available, and how much, have become poor again since going back to being a student :(

KingStromba
12-02-2005, 23:29

Smokey McPot
12-02-2005, 23:35

KingStromba

Downgraded? :roll:
172's are much better than Williams' - they're way to old now. Old technology so they crap.. :roll:

KingStromba
13-02-2005, 00:13
Yeah reno really pulled out the stops using the same engine for the last 10 years. Loads of expensive developments there. :shock:

KingStromba
