Re: Blue 111R -A71/ M74

Last Tuesday morning - don't think it was yours as it was Nightfall blue rather than Persian blue ( sounds really geeky knowing the colour names but I did have to check on websites to get them !!). Keith Thats a relief, thought someone had borrowed my car ! :D BTW my car is Laser Blue ! cheers Alan
