Hi,

Just defected from a SEAT Leon, as got bored of the dreary interior, and given my new wheels it’s first waxing :smiley:

I think they probably do😂. I literally tossed a coin between Tornado Red and Indium Grey, the grey won but I still really like the red.

Cheers for the welcome  :smiley:

Indium Grey was my 2nd preference but local dealerships only had choice of silver, black, blue (fancied a change from those colours as had those on previous 3 cars) aubergine ( :sick:) and white (not my cup of tea) on forecourts when I was shopping around.

Then noticed a Tornado Red was “coming soon” so paid deposit to reserve that and snapped it up after a 30 minute test drive.
