It is a lovely colour Mandarin...one of my favs. But I hate the fake wood trim in it. Yuk!

My first car, a 1992 AX Debut, had that fake wood trim kit in. What an awful idea! It was the first thing I pealed off :lol:

I have seen Xantias with it too, its a fairly well made design and fits the contours of the dash very well, but it is nasty.

Glad you share my dislike for it Chris! It fits well to the dash and looks good quality...generally speaking, but the colour is dreadful.
Not a match on the real thing.

My prestige had that exact wood effect kit in it when i bought it, it came off very quick, in fact i done the deal in the lymington ferry carpark, drove it 50 yards onto the ferry and stayed in the car to remove them on the trip back home, it hurts the eyes!!!!.
