Dark blue SWB mk5, 52 reg

Postby Nadjenka » Fri Feb 12, 2010 5:14 pm

Yup, saw it for the first time - 52 reg MK5 :shock: I almost run off the road, staring at the numberplate making sure I'm not seeing things (again :lol: ) - check, making sure it IS a Transit and not GAZ :lol: :lol: - check and then took out my phone camera to take a picture (big thanks to whoever invented my automatic gearbox :!: 8) ) So here it is:

Exciting! Sorry about the quality, my poor little phone tried it's best... :D And then (before Bigmastif points out the obvious again :twisted: ), Etis check got me calm - it's not 2002 :( Looked nice, even for NOT being 2002, it was still rust free and I liked the colour a lot :mrgreen:

Soooo the last boring question remains - was it YOU? :D

Well I might be myopic (in fact "myopic" doesn't justify it - "blind as a bat" would be better diagnosis when I take my contact lenses out :lol: :lol: :lol: ), but as for colour blind - blue moon would be "silver" in my definition - since you can see full circle, and new moon would justify for dark blue for me :? But it could be just me :mrgreen: I would know "midnight blue" though :wink:
