although the st170 is not that impressive a car, are you still trying to tell me you would rather have a 5? if so, you are mad, there is so much more to a car than straight line speed. i know what I would rather be driving round in all day. a crappy old renault with a turbo bolted on or a smooth, quick, comfortable focus with all the toys. hmmmmm, let me think!
i think the point was that you can spend 16k on a focus but his scary french tin box will still rape it for breakfast

As in the deep dark kinda blue? Not arden or carribic?
Yes, but, they are rarer than the colour of my car. Usually found on 1.6 16v Sports around R/S reg.
There was a nice stienmetz kitted one up for sale for ageeeeees in the mags.

are you on about a clio? if so, then the blue on the cup does not come on the standard 172.
