Aintree Green 90XS SW - Bowler
Well here it is at last, collected from the dealer yesterday, Very Happy standard ish so far except the black bonnet lettering, grill and light surrounds, plus NAS 2" step. The colour is interesting, it's nearly black in low light and becomes bright green in the sun. I couldn't stop looking out the window today, sad Sheep !
A few mods to come.........

Silver would nicely pick up your SVX mags & other silver stuff. Black IMHO would do nothing, it would simply "darken" it further....IMHO of course.
In any case, LOVELY Defender, Pickles.

If it were mine I'd go Santorini roof. I was 50:50 Santorini:Aintree when I ordered mine.

Very nice Thumbs Up
