AM have given me an extension to a week on Monday to get a spec in, which I feel is a timescale I can work to.
Why are this pushing to this particular deadline?

Just the normal lock down lead time for a July build / Aug delivery spot - its one of the first slots, or so I am told. Obv I will delay the actual delivery until 1st Sept for the new plate.

New pics of all three moulds taken in the same sunlight in my living room. I think these are the closest to the real life colours that I have managed to capture so far.

Noticed that Cayucos is actually Pearlescent not metallic and also that the metallic flake in Cinnabar is a dark flake, not lighter as is more usual.










Sorry if you are all bored silly now tongue out

LOL - I really don't know. To be honest, think I'd be happy with any of them!

Just need a 3 sided coin to toss! wink

LOL, best post of the thread so far, and in certain light a pretty fair representation of both to be honest! wink

Yup that's pretty much what I thought when I finally found some suitable pics where the colour shade substituted accurately!

I think this could be the one - and the mrs agrees! eek

LOL - I think I've been almost as indecisive as your friend with the GT8 order! wink

In fairness they are still open and already exchanged a few emails this morning - the Kermit pics have most definitely met with the approval at that end too! Feeling very happy with it now, probably the most happy with a single choice so far. I still have a few Q questions to answer mostly on interior trimming before anything is locked down totally, but I finally think I must just be getting close! tongue out

Probable configurator interior to go with Kermit paint:
