That looks absolutely fantastic, I believe it is Estoril blue, which has to be one of the nicest blues for a Cerbera... not that im biased or anything.

I only ask because those alloys look really good, and I assume they've been refurbed.
Maybe in a different colour. Or has it just come out like that in this particular shot..?

Don't know about a re-furb but I'm fairly sure they are still the original colour.

the alloys look great - they are stripped and polished - look like brushed stainless close up!
- shame mine are too battered to chieve this effect!

Hi Guys, Yes its mine!

Colour is Audi Cobalt Blue with Magnolia and Blue interior, not grey!

The alloys are original 17" RL'S, but have been stripped of the original coating on the outer rim and spokes and then highly polished. The inbetween triangular parts have been recoated with the standard coating to stop corrision.

They do give a different look to the car and do need polishing time to time to keep them looking nice.

I've had the car 3 years this year and it was fitted with them when I bought it so can't say where they were done, sorry.

Oops, sorry I asked!

He said it could be done by the end of this week. But I'm not gonna rush him, as I'm not bothered how long it takes. Just as long as I'm kept informed, I'm happy. Oh, and that he does a good job too

hehe No worries SI. I'm sure Andy will do a good job. Looking forward to feeling how much better a gearbox is after throwing close to a grand at it.
