Thanks for the nice remarks folks.

The colour is "Jazz Blue" and is a VW colour as Lisa says.

I should have thanked Lisa for the therapy too. Having your pride and joy smashed up isn't fun and then waiting weeks for the other party's insurance to approve repairs really eats at you too. If it was my fault it would have been easier to swallow.

And yeah, schumicat, the rear bumper seemed to slip under the front of the car that hit me. The rear lights and hood are about perfect for absorbing everything those bumperettes were designed to absorb ...

I now have an obsession with looking in the rear view mirror and am also noticing that too many seem to drive way too close. Personally I'd back the hell away from an old rear engined Porsche but I guess most people don't really know and/or care about that.

Anyway, rant over as I'm back on the road and very happy with the car. EFI is the way !
