When I first got my Antelope Hatch, I hated the colour... But it's grown on me massively and now I can't wait to have the car hit with a fresh coat of paint!

From the factory, it was probably fairly common, but these days it's not as common as other colours, as most people probably have repainted with brighter, more out there colours...

thanks guys....glad i have some positive nods for the colour....as i previously stated, the colour scheme is kosher after dismantling the interior and exterior....its factory Antelope for sure.....now the other issue.....was there a pinstripe seperating the blackouts? or a chrome strip....may as well give the ol' girl a new lease of life in the same colour.....fanks guys!
