Posted: Tue May 07, 2019 11:49 amThe car was painted as a sprint when I bought it .After checking I found it should have been blue but didn?t fancy it , I?ve always liked the old fiat 500 colours of the 60s so I had a spray out done but found it too light in the end I saw a modern Citroen in the colour I chose so when online to check Citroen colour schemes and ended up with the green I have today
