Default Magenta or Noveau red sapphire cosworth?
I've always loved a magenta saph (or so I thought) but now I'm thinking it is noveau... Or perhaps I like both

Does any one have a picture of both next to each other as I'm getting the colours muddled in my head and I can't remember the last time I've actually seen one in the flesh.

Magenta is the early car colour ,nouveau was on the later 4x4 cars normally k platers with the boot spolier lip colour coded
nouveau is the nicer shade imo

Awesome, so am I right in thinking then that both colours were not on offer at the same time (as from pictures they do look kinda similar?) Magenta for early cars and Noveau only on facelift 4x4s?

Also, only just picked up on the colour coded rear spoiler bit, every day is a learning day...

Magenta is more of a browny red when you put them side by side
Mines Nouveux Red, so another on the thread

The colour coded rear lip was only the very late 92 spec...

Coolio, Jason - where about in Sussex are you? I grew up in the Brighton area, well went to school over in Newhaven before I moved north of the border many years ago.

I did think of doing mine white, but the RL7's in White didn't really go...

Ended up going for black... (just for Glenn, I know how he loves black wheels!?)
