That looks lovely in that colour combination, almost as good as my Brilliant Blue with Alpaca :D Seriously though that is the first one I have seen in Hyacinth and it looks really cool to use a modern vernacular :)

Have you changed the radiator grill to one without the star? “Double star” isn’t great, just doesn’t look right... :(

Picture of two stars and painted grille bars, hope it doesn’t offend too many.

Get a European radiator grill as they don’t have the star as an option. It’s what I was going to do with my W213 as I really like the bomb-sight which isn’t available in the UK.
