Re: Unexpected turn of events...
Thanks chaps.
RP number-wise Russ it's actually quite close to Dean's Prestige - 5694 is the number which is 11 June 1992 whilst Dean's is 5678 and 26 May 1992...!
The finish is lovely on the paintwork I must admit - it'll look even better once it's clean (!) as it got rather dirty on the way back...
Better pics to follow in the near future...

Re:
Thanks - it's called Cassis Nacre. Only know of two other CXs in the UK finished in that colour...Eddie nuff wrote:That's a nice looking CX in the background - love the colour.

Franklin, where are the promised extra shots of the repainted xm? Black with black leather is my favourite too...my brain is watering at the thought

Re: Unexpected turn of events...
I must admit Vince that the XM hasn't turned a wheel since it got back the other day...!
Christmas festivities have got in the way and I can't see any progress being made to the Prestige certainly until the second week of January...
In the end I decided to stick to the original grey as opposed to colour change to Black, keeping it original. Still nice, though...!

Re: Unexpected turn of events...
So that must mean I have the only other one thats Cassis Nacre then Franklin? I didn't realise it was that rare a colour. And my daughter refers to it as Ribena!

Re: Unexpected turn of events...
Apologies Marc, I thought I put "two others" in the sentence and not "two"...!
But including yours there are three that I know of...

Not surprising, as Cassis is Blackcurrant in French.marc61 wrote:So that must mean I have the only other one thats Cassis Nacre then Franklin? I didn't realise it was that rare a colour. And my daughter refers to it as Ribena!
