Hi all. Just orderd a 1.2 active in nimbus grey, getting a call from dealer on Friday for delivery date. Hopefully wont be too long as there where all ready a few nimbus grey actives built in the UK. It was either that or black or wait ages. Going by others in the gallery both are good colours.hopefully can get a few pics to show in the gallery.the wife has a 1.5 captur dynamique s so will also be interesting to see the differences.

Argh. Just off the phone to the dealer. The nimbus he said that where built where all snapped up by the time he went to order it. So now if I want nimbus grey I need to wait ˜ž
although he can get me spirit grey in two weeks ! Decisions ˜Œ

Spirit Grey is the nicest colour on the 2008, in my opinion!

 

[barrheadred]

My trade in mot,tax and insurance is all due for renewal in oct. Don't want to fork out for renewing that. Think I'm going to go with the spirit grey !

The Insurance you can transfer to the new 2008 subject to a small handling charge; the balance of the remaining road tax I think will be refunded by the DVLA under the new rules.

The main loss will be the MOT But maybe your dealer can do that foc for you.
