Nice car. Won't lose that in the car park!!

Did have a very nice Saab 9-3 convertible. That was a rare yellow And in very good condition. Part exchanged it for the yellow SLK

Am I addicted to Yellow

No. The SLK at less than 15k miles and a rare colour sold it. In the past did have a silver/grey R171…. just did not get on with it.

The yellow does look nice and suits the car.

Matt black bonnet and lower panel on boot would finish the job off, just like my old mk1 escort.

That is very true....I had a yellow Delta Integrale .....easy to find in even the biggest car park!

Thanks for the advice.

But, would like to keep it as it was intended to be

Will post images soon as taken from QTS as it looks like they used a top photographer. Just need to sort out image size etc.

Very nice! I have the same car in black. I’ve owned it from new. At the time there was no proper AMG version, so we ticked all the AMG dress up options on the list. When the car arrived it had the ///AMG badge inside the glovebox. We never fitted it.

We never fitted it.

Don't tell fibbs, you couldn't get a bigger one

Hi, thanks for your support
I guess having the AMG badge on the boot is too much for some. I only stated it has the AMG body kit and it has…. front/rear AMG spoilers and side skirts with full compliment of AMG wheels. Wait till they see the AMG clock and AMG badge on the dash….. they will be having kittens

I am happy with it

Will not be changing anything except the mileage.

It is 26 years old + and is a credit to previous owners. I shall do my utmost to make it better.

Now where did I put that AMG back box

And handsome it is too.

Lovely looking motor; nice to see something a bit more lively than silver or black.
Now go out and find yourself a set of AMG mats and one of these pronto

Very nice and such lovely condition.... well done. That will last you a very long time. I have owned quite a number of vehicles in my time, from the US, Germany, Japan and some large expanse of time with UK cars, but i have never owned a yellow one! Odd really as some of them were very 'of their time' colour schemes ....

Agree. Had a very nice R172 and just could not get on with it - preferred my R170
Yours looks lovely - enjoy

Reaches for Autotrader....

That's a lovely colour - it really pops. I must admit I'm keen on yellow too - I had my camper van repainted in white over VW Bamboo Yellow. I went to the Classic Motor Show recently and there were plenty of old Triumphs in their Mimosa yellow - Stags, TR6s, Dolomites, and they all looked fabulous. Made me wistfully imagine an alternative universe in which Triumph weren't killed off by BL, and ALL their cars were made in Mimosa yellow, so that it became their signature colour, like Ferrari and Alfa with their signature reds

Really lovely car and rare with such low mileage too.

I almost bought a very similar car with a yellow Designo interior a few months ago. Blooming lovely it was too, especially the interior

 

[YellowStone]

That is very true....I had a yellow Delta Integrale .....easy to find in even the biggest car park!

Bet you wish you still had the Integrale…. stunning machine
