Can anyone view this file? It seems to have become zipped which doesn\'t sit with my Apple.
Ahh been fiddling and if you change the file name to .xls once on the desktop download it works.

Anyway, what it is is a simple area location of 1st Gens at the present time. There\'s no detail of Reg Nos or of exact town because some folks might not like that. There\'s some little notes after most of the cars though, so people should be able to see and recognise their \'beloveds\'.
I have got quite a lot of Reg Nos etc on a bigger document and I would like to fill in a lot of the unknowns. Anyone got any details perhaps they can post it on here or PM me.
Ta Guys, I hope you can view the file.

Sorry Paul, I\'ll have to get advice how to upload xls files to the forum. Any wizz kids out there? Remember that Apple tends to like \'Stuffit\' rather than \'Zip\'.

Dave,

I managed to open by saving on my PC and renaming to .xls.

By the way my car is not now for sale (unless someone makes me an offer I can\'t refuse).

Also for accuracy the colour is "Opal Green"

If you want any other details for your master sheet please let me know.

Regards

Dave

Hi Dave, good to hear from you again.
Yes, that\'s what I did on my Apple. I had to put the final \'x\' on to xls to make it upload, then take it off again, once downloaded, in order to open it. A bit messy, sorry. So it will work then, if you\'re on PC.
So the stock Metallic green was Opal Green then. Presume it\'s like the Silver which was \'Sunrise Silver\'. Mazda had very few colours (for the series 3 certainly). And even fewer interior schemes!
What County are you Dave? PM if you like.

Dave,

I am in Bath, which from a county perspective is in a unitary authority of BANES, "Bath and North East Somerset". Not really a proper county.  

Out of interest MK111 colours are as follows:

Dover White - Wine Trim
Sunrise Red - Black Trim
Opal Green - Beige Trim
Sunbeam Silver - Wine Trim
Tender Blue - Black Trim
Sparkling Black - Black Trim

My car actually has black trim fitted as it was near the end of the production run and they had run out of beige.  In my mind this was a good job as it looks much nicer.

Regards

Dave
