Keep it the same mate . Will look like new once paint job done, and you wont get hassle if you decide to sell at a later date

as said, keep it the same colour. Acolour change is a nightmare even if u strip the car down to virtually a bare shell. New paint will flake off the areas not rubbed down properly & in a few months it will look shit when u open the boot/bonnet/doors etc

Keep it the same. There's a gang of basket cases near me who all pore over this one Cossie. Its in great condition, but its friggin orange, covered in tiger stripes with 15" wheels. Makes me cry every time I see it.

think the cossie from yorkshire rs spares is on here 4 sale same colour as yours and looks a good spec 2. sold mine to a lad from sunderland i think. was gutted when it went but it needed to much stuff to make it mint and i would rather have a 4x4. been to the tyne+wear meet once a few months back but normally go to the durham meet in whickham. whens the next tyne+wear meet?
