It looks rather straight to me!

I'd say the front wing has been painted ad there is a slight dent in the rear door.

Yeah i would agree, there is two dinks on the rear quarter panel, a fair crease in the rear door and another dent on the front wing behind the sidelight..........that wing does look like its had a bad colour match above the plastic strip too...........i hope this wasnt the good side they picked for the photo .

Nice car though with the right colour and right engine.

Question is Dean - what engine has it got!?

I've got a s1 V6Si manual in gold although I'd say it's a lighter champagne colour - it's more a paler sandier
hue whereas the one pictured appears a much darker gold. I love the 'graphic' of the gold with black trim and
the car pictured does benefit from 24v'er rims too. I got mine for nowt with a water leak on the feed pipes in
the middle of the Vee which I've only recently now sourced so to date have never really driven it much.

Goes well though and looks damn nice!!

Si did you say Andrew? That will be a rareity, along with the manual box.

Yep Si. I've never been too bogged down by the trim level though sometimes it's important
like a Xant VSX/Exclusive/Activa spec suspension over an LX etc. It's usually the engine/box
and colour that will interest me first.

I like the Si spec - did I ever mention I'm not a big fan of leather seats!? I just can't recall
now if they're still heated mind. I have this idea the only real difference between series 1
Si and SEi was the alloys, leather and seat belt pretensioners? Probably a few extra colour
choices...

Andrew

Si is a nice spec. SEi had leather, alloys, air con over the Si I think?

Its just odd to have the top engine, in the mid spec car as such.

My dad had a 2.0si in this colour with the lovely early alloys with the round disc in the middle, oh i loved the way that car looked so much, died in the end due to unfindable electrical issues (according to the garage) that caused it to cut out, of course now i would know it was the multi plug under the lhm resovoir and have it sorted in a half hour but nevermind
