wait til next week and see how bad mine is. steve at AC on mersey street said its a great colour for hiding the rust, but its clearly visible if you know what i mean. bit of a blue oval nut myself (sorry all!) having owned 2 very daft bhp 3 doors, a 220bhp escort rs turbo, and the favourite....mk1 fiesta, 1.1, pop plus in the best colour.....CORAL BIEGE!! was a belter. but for the past 2 1/2 years owning this, i wish i'd have bought one sooner
