Default Sapphire out for a few pics and a drive

Well 2013 is the year where I want to get more use and miles on the Sapphire this year.
So as the weather was very nice, no excuse.
Oil change etc done last week, car now ready to go.
So time for a few pictures

Wheels suit it very nice. I'm really tempted to try black on mine, same colour as yours.

Looks lovely! Like the fully painted rear spoiler too! Looks quite light for Magenta?

I must get mine out and enjoy it in the nice weather! Just got one more wheel to spray and sorted.

P4ULT: What wheels do you have? Going to try my MO's in black....

Thanks for the comments guys, muchly appreciated
Yep, car is Nouveux Red.
Wheels are 18", no scrubbage and still a comfy ride.
Rear spoiler colour coded from factory, did hear it was the last 200 made
Car needs to be used more this year as only do about 300 each year, even MOT tester jokes needs to be used more

I've heard the "last 200" theory, but didn't think that would apply to a J plate... Mines an April 92, with a black edge spoiler. Thought it would just be K plates?
Either way, I love yours, need to get mine out the garage and MOT'd!!

Mine is a 93 K plate, J plate is a personal plate
