Hi Ray, I'm here and well, thanks for the compliments!

I've had a break from the car while it's been in the body shop in which time I've edited the repair blogs and hope to re-do them once the car is complete.

Here are some photos of my car recently back;

Thanks Ray and Tim. I gave the colour a great deal of thought and had a few sample panels produced - the final choices were Cumberland Grey and the original Snow Shadow Grey.

Snow Shadow Grey is slightly pearlescent so it tends to reflect it's surroundings, it can sometimes look more silver or blue or green. I was worried it would be too light for the chrome but I'm really pleased with the result.

So, it's Snow Shadow Grey? More pictures please. Could you tell me the code, btw. Was it difficult to 'match', if you know what I mean.

It would be very helpful to know the current code and manufacturer of SSG in case I wanted to return my other car to its original spec from Citroen Silver, thanks

I see Cumberland Grey didn't make it in the end. A wise choice going back to period color. how close a colour palette match is the SSG on 108 to that from the works ?

The body looks excellent - wonderful work.
