Once again, a big thank you to Mick for the wheels!!!
Brand new Toyo Proxes T1-R 225/50 R16 W (92) were fitted just an hour ago and now everything is in place :)

Doesn't it look lovely? And much younger too...

If I paste in the link from the properties I get the log in page, perhaps you can only see it if you're a member of that site?

ford didnt `arf come up with wierd named colours for the scorpio , maybe thats part of the reason they didnt take off as they hoped , they may have been better off using "normal" colours ???
