i had a midnight blue Puma VCT.

My only daliance with the dagenham dustbins! never again.

welcome to the board st170. Have they re-designed the fuel flap on the focus yet or do you still scratch the paint work with the filler cap and smash your knuckles whilst attempting to fill it?

and why oh why did they shove the single reversing lamp in the most daftest place? I do like the locking bonnet tho.

My user name is dave_st170 not st170

Have you had a Focus before??
Because you said you have only had a Puma???
If you take your time you DONT scratch the paint work & smash your knuckles!!!

Yes i do have to say that the reversing light is very silly and i HATE the bonnet locking system.


Anyway my question was not about FORDS it was about Mercedes!!!

Dave :mrgreen:

Thanks Tom for your help.

Is there a code on the car to find out the colour??

Thanks
Dave

 

[tom7035]

dave st170. On the bonnet landing panel to the right of the catch is a plate with lots of numbers. Paint code is the second number (3 digits) bottom line, e.g. ** 516 * ***.

Cheers.

Bottom line number is 900 F

Is that the right one m8??

Thanks
Dave :grin:

 

[tom7035]

Yes, would appear to be 900.

Cheers, Tom.

Sorry, can't help you there. Pop into your nearest body/paintshop or Halfords branch and have a look at their colour cards for this information.

Cheers.

Hi Dave,
best agoploise for the st170.

Had a focus while FORD sorted out the brakes on the Puma.

then 6months later they failed and so a nice and lovley Grand Cherokee arrived.

Not having a car that has brake failure. i dont mind having an accident thats my fault but cannot drive something that wont stop.

Still happy days.

Thats cool m8
I am 22yrs old and a ST170 for my age is great.
All my friends are jealous :-D

Cherokee's are great.
We have a N reg one (Not Grand sadly)
Auto with 100,000 miles on the clock.
No rust and still going well.
