What colour's that Nick? Colour coded everything. Looks okay in that shade. Are the rear light clusters all LED's?

In dark colours like this I think that it looks very nice
Personally I wouldn't ever want one without plastic arches/bumpers, but despite the bad press we gave the MY09 I think it's turned out quite well
Talking of those first pictures....I still don't understand why they released the show car in white though - it looked s t and they must have known it. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be fashionable
Thanks for the pics Nick Can you confirm that the painted bits are only available on the HSE or is it all models? 2006 TDV6 SE Auto Buckingham Blue

... and they're such an odd design with those off-set slots
The similar 20" Super 7's [that I'll have up for sale] would look much better. Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the light.

I like it. Smoothing out the textured pastic arches, door handles, bumpers etc with body-mathced paint makes cleaning much easier, and does away with the serious problem in the Middle East at least of UV exposure to black plastic.
Just had my arches, sill trims, mirror bodies body matched - much, much better. Car mods almost complete now and will psot pics shortly.

I'd be terrified of taking it off road and scratching it. Also, standing on the bumper to wash the roof will be a no no.
First time squeezed against the hedge on a rural lane and its by by paint and hello black scratches - at least with the dark grey of the current D3, any minor scrapes don't stand out unless you look really close.
Are the unpainted parts still available as an option on the SE and HSE ? I understand that un colour coded plastics are on the lower spec models.
Nice pics, shame about the disco3... colour is Ok though

Still don't like it. Looks incredibly boring and ordinary. Poor design.
