2014 Firenze 110 XS
Just ordered my replacement 110. Went boring and stuck with Firenze red, premium seats, and upgraded sound system. Got a SW rather than a utility this time as this ones for keeps. Should be good to pick up in Apr / May next year when I get back home from my current adventure.

I'll be in touch with a few site sponsors for some mods. Waxoyl and sealing the body first job!

First trip will be Iceland in July Very Happy

Cheers

Ian

If I was buying new, I think Firenze would probably be my first choice - I also like the fact that (certainly round here), there aren't many around. Thumbs Up

Laughing Thanks Steve, I'll bear that in mind.

I was also going to go for white, but being from the north I couldn't get my head around turning down free metallic paint on the XS.

The interior finish has scratches all over it, probably when the seats put in, had been penned over with touch up paint in the wrong colour. Door hinge was on too tight so all the paint came off when the door opened. Never mind, the upgraded seats were great and they are respraying the interior - I also got a comfy drive home.

Hopefully picking it up on Friday.

Never a dull moment Thumbs Up
