MATT!!!! when you see his interior... you'll understand! seats have been recovered red! and the doorcards are a black and white flower pattern, and i actually really like it! so i think hes definately going to be a girl soon! although still not sure on a name!

and Sam very good point about painting the wheel nuts and tightening them... but im sure if you put say the end of a latex glove thumb over the wheel nut and then the socket/brace onto it... the paint might not come off! hopefully... not sure whether to paint 1 wheel nut on each wheel or all of them! will need to go out and get some glowy paint though but more importantly, need to get him running properly before i start changing the looks!

this one's advertised in the 2cvgb classifieds...

Dear old KOJ, know that 2cv well, Spanners had it for quite some time.

joe, you could do somthing like spanners and put the paint on the bolt not the nut.

I was thinking something along them lines originally, but i've also thought of something else... my little plastic wheel nut covers... dont need to put a socket over them! paint them, then just stick them on

Red 2CV = Poppy. Copyright Anna halfpenny. She'll have words!

I messaged Anna on facebook when i first thought about naming her Poppy! Anna Approves

also, a few bits of Lily will be coming with me, like my bootlid! and seenas i know the keys work from him on my car... i havent got to change any locks over!! so yes.. the Lily will go and the Poppy will appear!

Oh thats all right then. But wont a hybrid of Lilly and Poppy, be Ploppy??

hahahaha

nahh one of the other names i thought about was Millie! because when i first got in it, and drove it, he felt very much like Mylo! Kt's car... but Millie sounds too much like Lily.. :/ Ploppy... o dear o dear
