I'm afraid that it's actually chrome Jeff, the fluorescent lights must be giving the brass effect. Thanks Steve, you're right it is a perma-grin!
Great news about your 4/4 Mr M, a very exciting event. I look forward to reading about it here, or maybe our paths will cross in Geneva.
Glad you enjoyed the video Mi3W, I'll try and post another one sans radio soon...
Grazie molto Peter (almost the limit of my Italian!).
It won't be long now Guenter, I do look forward to seeing the spec and the colours. If you have the chequer-strip, does that make our cars related? Seriously, are you going to the Works or having it shipped to your Dealer?
Thanks Martyn for your comments, I know you are not keen on chrome, but the spec works for me!
On the front number plate issue, what is the experience of the vintage guys? Has anyone been fined for no front number plate? If it is a big issue, maybe I just go with black and white plates. Any advice would be appreciated, even if it is don't do it!
Lastly AQM, I've measured the steering wheel and it is indeed 350mm. I don't think that a small wheel would look right on the 3W, also why I don't want a branded wheel. Just my 2 cents-worth...
