I must say both colours are not that common these days, not where I drive anyhow! What do you prefer, the hatch or the saloon?

the saloon is by far my favourite and i prefer the red aswell. i have never seen another red 180 on the road yet, and only seen a couple brg 180's about. i only got the green one as it was cheap, the bloke was moving abroad and needed a quick sale. i paid £2400 for it ran it for a year, put 15k on it and sold it for £3500

The Red Devil has recently escaped from being broken for bits yet again..........looks like she is staying a while longer until I get some new work :)
I'm very tempted to change her nickname to 'Red Rose' in memory of my Nan too :unsure:
Solar Red is always a nice colour just a bit of a ****** to keep the colour as deep red as it should be when left outside :laugh: oh and don't be using truckwash on it either :oops:
Jim
nice, love that colour red :)

At first i wanted a black Zs, when i found they were hard to come by i wanted the XPower grey, the same problem so i said silver got shafted after a long trip to hull so i said blue. Proms with caramel in the oil filler cap so i went red. THE BEST CAR I HAVE EVER HAD. I still look and smile LOVE IT.

Like the Saloon better than the Hatch, but not keen on Red for the reason that Jim (BHB) mentioned - it fades too easy.

yea red is bad for fadeing, unless you keep on top of it. a polish every quater keeps it shiny though. personally mine isnt faded but my dads red car where he never cleans it now has pink mirrors and a pink spoiler

Take a look in my gallery for pictures of what a quick but detailed wash, polish and wax can do.......thinking back to Brooklands last year.......The Red Devil was looking very very sexy :beer2:
