Is that..... a beautiful blue ;)

Also an earlier (F) white auto ES on too at the moment. With blue piped interior.

what is that thing in the boot of the white one? it looks a bit like the boot cover, but I have never seen it rolled up.

Shame about the wheels on the blue one...

It's the roller blind cover, rolled up; compare to the blue one where it is across the boot...

Those were the standard 14" wheels of the day - Antares, I think they were called. I agree they weren't the best, but wheels often turn up on eBay if you wanted to change them!

is the roller blind the same as the boot cover? I have the boot cover, came with mine, but two of the clips have slipped out of the holes, so it doesn't clip all around, it is most annoying! I was half-tempted to get some taurus wheels for mine, but they would dictate that the bumpers were painted, and that would be difficult. In either case, I am starting to get miserable seeing my car out in the wet, no place to store it, not wanting to move it much because speedo, but more importantly the odo, doesn't work and it needs new paint. need to get under the arches with WD40 to stop rust setting in, but I just have had little time/motivation to do stuff :(

No, the roller blind cover was an optional extra (only standard on Celebration); different therefore to the standard boot cover that clipped on.

Might have one of those (boot cover, not roller blind) spare if you're interested?

I Might be, If my one cannot be fixed. my one issue about the 480 (the car in general) is that there is a distinct lack of privacy, and I am very weary of an opportunistic thief doing a smash and grab on the cars contents, as all is on display. how do people deal with this? or is is just an 'occupational hazard'?
