You can see from the pics how severe frost has attacked the poorly sprayed bonnet :cry:

Very nice mate. It's either dark blue or the dark red
that looks nice.

Cheers guys, really happy with it so far. Plan to get the bonnet resprayed and a few wee trolley dents removed. The best thing about having a darker colour is that it shines up so well after a bit of polish or wax :D

Re. car mats - I just bought a set of these a couple of weeks ago

http://www.carmats4u.com/Peugeot-406-19 ... oduct.html

Really nice quality for the price, and the company are good too - I received my mats without any fixings for the drivers' mat - so I e-mailled them and they posted out two packs of fixings free of charge; they arrived the next day. They do more expensive ("Exclusive") mats and less expensive mats, and they even do rubber/PVC mats for people who are constantly bringing muck into the car. They fit really well into the footwells and don't move about much.
