Hi There, New Is 200 Sport Owner

[duttnut]

Hi,

I have fancied an IS200 for quite a while now and after looking at about six different cars in different colours I bit the bulit and a couple of days ago I became a very happy owner of a IS200 Sport, in a sort of metalic orangy maroon colour which I'm sure someone here will be able to identify :)

After a couple of days and a few drives to get used to the idea, I'm sure this will be a car I'll like and find very interesting.

I'm interested in a wide range of cars, I own a modified mk1 Fiesta and am a member of the classic ford forum called oldskoolford. I also have a Dutton kit car which I'm in the middle of rebuilding and fitting a Rover V8 engine.

Your forum is great, has already been of use to me in many ways and has helped me make a decision to buy. So Thanks :D

There are a few niggles with the car so I will be asking questions sooner or later, I'll be very happy to hear your oppinions and listen to any advice.

Here's the colour guys, think it's darker than the other pics,

[aido]

Looks good mate, think it only looks darker as the suns not out, when it's clean and the sun is out it will look ace like the other pics :)
