Your right, what was I thinking? Black, silver, red and yellow are so this season.

So what are you calling your Harlequin Coupe Plus LE pLEus?

In fact owning a Plus means more than a set of wheels and a controlled look, the definition of Plus when it comes to moding can be summarised as thus:

"Their strength 'plus' their spirit makes them formidable. Intelligence 'plus' wit makes for an interesting person".

Let's call it A fiat coupe 'interesting' model

patch, in all seriousness i think you've done a great job with it - that looks truely lovely.

however, it looks to me like it's trying to be an LE when as we know it's not one. moreover, the better of the models (plus, obviously) has been diminished imo......

great looking car though cool

But don't you think the Plus looks a little bit bland? Exterior-wise! It needs a spruce up IMHO, and that is what this one got!

Thanks for the compliment though mate, I knew we'd get there in the end laugh thumb

i think the plus is meant to be understated and classy whereas the le is the opposite - it's in-your-face attitude and kick ass. maybe MY mid-life crisis is finished..... wink

I agree with proccy. It looks like you're making an LE replica out of a good plus.

Sorry.
