Like the mirror casings in the gloss black, works well with the silver covers. Keep up the good work :)

The contrast now is so good :lol:
Now I need to look for a good solution for the numberplate

Nice car, nice colour. Looks fairly similar to mine in certain lights. I have the 74KW 1.4 that you used to have and the colour is Glacier Blue.
Keep it up!

1.4 74KW is a good engine.
No bad word about it :)
Glacier blue is a bit greyish compared to brisa blue

Yeah I agree, it's a good engine for what it is. Might put an induction kit in and a cat-back exhaust for a bit more bhp. After the engine packs in I was thinking of a conversion and get the 1.8 20vt that you have put in my car. Yeah I agree, some people think my car is silver!
In some different lights it looks darker and lighter though. Apparently Glacier Blue has a 'lot of pearlescents in it' according to my local bodyshop when they sprayed the front and rear bumper for me.

Really, never start the conversion. That will costs you more money than a good used FR 1.8.
And about adding more power to the 1.4... I never did because it takes more effort to do it then it delivers power :lol:

There's a place that can apparently do the conversion for about £700, so in about 5 years time I might look into doing that. Even if it costs £1000 I'll probably still save and get it done, would be worth it.
As for adding power currently, I know it wouldn't add much. Maybe 15bhp if I'm lucky in total, but +15bhp is better than +0bhp! Also the 1.4 sounds very nice with a cat back & induction kit. Used to know a guy with one.
