Funny enough mine came with the silver wheels! No idea why, guess they were just to hand when it was coming out of the factory. It was orginally a Fiat dealers car.

However, once I get sometime they are going in for powder coating back to the proper colour.

If they need a refurb it would be worth it.

Hope Brewster is suitable horrified by the sight of all that Chrono!

Chaser,those must be the best pics of a Chrono i`ve seen .

All the other pics of Chrono`s in my Coupé picture folder that i`ve collected are all tiny and your ones finally do the colour some justice .

Baz

Thanks Baz.

The Chrono colour is really wierd cos it looks so different depending on the lighting conditions!

Yes, I love the way the colour looks in those pic... I took them on my phone too!! I did not think they would come out so good.

If you need any more reference pics for your folder taken with a better camera I would be happy to oblige.

Cheers,

Ian.

chaser thats real nice mate real nice,

Thanks Cowboy.

I hope to keep her that way too.

Ian

Chaser, very nice car, I bought one myself at the start of August and really love it ! Colour is very unusual and as far as I know mine is the only one in Ireland !
Best of luck with now y'a hear !

By the way, just noticed in your pics the way the gear lever gaiter is sitting down, like mine was, this becomes a real dirt trap and looks way better if you pull it up and get it to sit uparound the lever !

Brian

Hi Brian,

Yes, quite rare these Chrono Colour cars

I know of one in Scotland but not sure if any others around.

Thanks for the tip about the gear lever.

The primer comments get a bit wearing after a while don't you think?

Colour reminds me a bit of the Gulf racing blue[in certain light]

Have you got much to do to get yours perfect?

Regards,

Ian.

There are at least two Chrono's here in Scotland, both in Aberdeen.

Ian, did I mention that your car looks fantastic ? I was fairly fussy when looking but was prepared to pay for a good one, I travelled over from the south of Ireland to England for this one ! I do believe in the saying 'you pay for what you get' ! Prior to buying mine it had new disks and pads all round, belts done at PowerFiat, centre console, oil cooler pipes etc. I've all the receipts and fsh for it. It had just 50K on the clock (53K now in 6 weeks !) I could do with getting the wheels refurb'd as there are a few blisters appearing but apart from that she's 100%. I'd love put 17 or 18's on her but would continue the LE colour scheme by getting titanium or antrachite finish. When the back box goes (the rest is pretty new) I'll get a nicer looking / sounding one.

Keep in touch

Brian

Cheers Brian.

I think yours looks great too! I saw your car for sale before you bought it. It was too expensive for my budget.

You really should stick with the standard wheels on the LE - your car is very original and it would be great to keep it like that. All you will get from the 17's or 18's is a harsher ride.

There is a paint code somewhere on the forum for the Titanium colour for when you get them refurbed.

If you want a nice quiet, but very nice sounding exhaust that has the same style [although larger diameter 90mm] tailpipe look at a Supersprint - I have just had one fitted.
It is not boomy or raspy, just a lovley deep tone.

Enjoy your coop!

Ian.
