yeah thats true, i didnt realise there were different shades until recently because i had a bit of an altercation with a motorhome recently and my fiesta is still not back on the road yet. some guy in a motorhome decided it would be a good idea to stop in the middle of the road in the junction coming off a roadabout and unfortunatly i couldnt stop in time and i smashed into him, thankfully it was only panel damage and a headlight, but i decided to have it fixed myself as opposed to insurance because they would just write it off and i like the car too much for that, so i bought the bonnet, bumper and headlight off a friend of a friend who said they had a mallard green Si, and it turned out that the colour of the parts i got were considerably darker so i think a full respray is on the cards in the near future, prob stick with mallard green or the mettalic blue that the Sis came in

although something that i found amusing about the crash was that my number plate was originally N146 SKS but then it got snapped and i like to think that it was down to precision driving that i managed to snap it to read SI lol!!
