    What colour was it originally? Is it the one in your sig? If so, original colour respray unless its having every single piece of trim inside and outside removed prior to the full respray.

    Back when I was knee-high, you'd see a lot of brown/beige cars - Allegros, Maestros, Montegos, Minis...painting cars in those shades died out for a reason!

    Each to their own though and I'd like to see the finished result if it ever happens:)

    Brown is such a 'scene' colour and in a couple of years you'll be changing it, I'll swear by it! Looks poo (pun very much intended:lol:) you'll be fitting a brown dash, wicker seats and a roof rack next!
