Not sure - it's called Obsidian Black and it is a metallic paint. Have to say I haven't noticed the gold fleck, but then I haven't looked for it (and its filthy now !!!)

So here's a few photo's of her taken this afternoon. She WAS clean I promise on Christmas Eve, but what with the recent rain she's FILTHY again !!!!!!!!





"That" rear spoiler







Seats are comfortable but leave an imprint of the last person to sit in them !!



Non-plasticky interior


Yep that is 35.5 miles to 1/4 tank !


Casette deck...

Without wishing to sound negative, they really are ugly feckers and that spoiler does not help IMO!

And why the pic with the boot open?

Each to their own I hated the spoiler at first too but I like it now

And the boot open? Because I'd just popped the boot to get something out of it - is that okay with you !?

Sorry for sounding like a negative snob - I obviously did!

Just that I really don't like those spoilers - I think Lurking Lawyer also has one on his 911.

And the boot comment was just that I thought that it was strange to take a picture of the car with the boot open. Nothing more.

Forgiven?

The first pic was taken just after I washed her, but you can see from the rear-pic how dirty she is now

The rear spoiler grows on you (no jokes there!). I really wanted the smaller spoiler, but after I got it I thought - what the hell, if you're going to put a spoiler on do it properly! None of this half way house thing

Forgiven - it was just too cold to shut the boot again just to take a pic after I'd popped it up - they were all taken in a hurry
