I suggest that you start a thread in the "resto" section. Photos are a must and keep on asking the questions.

Hello?????
It isn't Orange!!!!!!
The other one wasn't Purple either!!!
One of the new ones will probably be green, very green.
Another new one is green too but not as green as the previous one. Still pretty green. No, now it's Blue.
The other new one will be white with stripes. Actually it might not. No, it will be.
BUT, that one is definitely Yellow :=}

Come and see some pretty shoddy, slow driving of a really well prepared competition Sprint here!
