Anyone else own a 'Bittersweet' Chromactive 260SE? Just wanted to know if there are any others around.

IMHO You should either get a Good Cash Discount or a Very good trade in price as I think it a Bit expensive, but a lovely looking car.
I'm sure others will have different views?

Do you have a website for the dealer?
Mind you the above model has the Monogram interior too & the sports side sill & rear bumper extensions.

I'm sorry, but if I write anymore "ooooh" on this post then it'll be just considered as drool. Which it blatantly is.... :drool4: :drool4: :drool4:

If it gets a supermarket ding or stone chipped how do you match the paint? Its bad enough with a metallic paint job but that must be hell to do.

That isn't Bittersweet - that is Monogram Shot Silk.

Doris is correct (though he is referring to the car in the Autotrader advert for sale by SMC - not yours!)

SMC have had that car for an awfully long time - I went to look at it many many months ago.

Given the funds I would have the ZT in Shot Silk at the drop of a hat, providing it is in perfect nick, I would however be scared of parking it anywhere that other cars are allowed. So I would only be able to shunt it in and out of my garage for cleaning and drooling purposes. :D
