Yeah... bottom half was burgandy when I bought it, same as the legs (which are now silver). Used Dulux exterior gloss, colour matched to the car by B&Q

Interesting I tow mine with a 1256 Vauxhall Viva but when we load the van up it struggles with the extra weight, perhaps it needs an overhaul!!

I'm a bit naughty with mine, and load the heavy stuff towards the back of the compartments to help lower the nose weight and make it a little easier on the car!
