Wow, thanks Alan. If a technologically challenged muppet like me can do this, it must be easy!

So here's my baby with her new boots on!

That's an interesting colour. I think I prefer it to the in your face YELLOW you usually see.

When you say "boots' do you mean tyres or wheels ? If it's the latter then where did you get them from ? - They look superb !.... and what is the description of that colour ??

Thanks,
PJ

Very unusual colour, but I like it. You know you can get some black and silver self adhesive TVR centre cap stickers for your wheels, off ebay. A friend of mine bought some and they look good and fit well.

Isnt Halycon Midas normally more yellow than that, with a gold fleck? Maybe it darkens in colour with the fading light, as the sunset pearl does?

Ah, yellow cloud9

If it is, then Ive never seen that colour. Looks good though...better than boring blue etc

The wheels/tyres were advertised in the classified section on PH and the tyres are almost brand new. The colour is Halcyon Midas Pearl but apparently there are several different shades of it.

Your only bored of blue 'cos it's always the colour of the car in front.

Much depends upon the light that the car is sat in. In very bright sunlight, the car looks very 'inyerface' yellow with just a hint of orange. It's listed as Halcyon Midas Pearl in my handbook.

The pictures I posted were taken between 6:00 and 7:00pm with the light less intense. It has a lovely gold tinge to it I think.

And to think that I wanted a blue one! nono

It's a lovely colour Stef but I'm more impressed by those wheels. Have they just been painted or do you keep a toothbrush in your cleaning kit.
