Is it just me or does the border between the cream and the gold sit far too high.

7154 is OW15WKD.
If they are in registration order, OW15WKC would be 7153.

(09 Jan 2021, 3:07 pm)Storx The cream is fine imo, I'd be tempted to either move the dark purple forward or the light purple further back to create the x-lines X. It's a similar problem on the Solo's aswell. It looks fine though imo, shame the back wheel arches are where they are though.

(09 Jan 2021, 3:14 pm)streetdeckfan I think once the lines are added the location of the purples will look a lot better, although I still despise the way they make the stripes go into the wheel arches!
Regardless, I did a quick and dirty photoshop job of lowering the gold and to me it looks a lot better proportion wise, and I also took another crack at fixing the god awful front end! (I don't think forcing the purple on the front would ever end up looking good)

Probably being a bit pedantic here, but it would look much better if they had white destination displays rather than the standard orange. Especially since all the other X lines vehicles have them.

(09 Jan 2021, 3:35 pm)Storx I prefer the actual front ngl tbh. The only thing I'd change is to paint the light surrounds to black because it's crying for it but that's it for me as the X-Lines vehicles (some Enviros) look better with it than those without.

Obviously I'm not condoning doing that, before anyone complains!

Well if Northumbria Police wish to increase their already country leading fine tally then they know where to go.
Then again...should the company or its employees be posting things they know will excite and encourage travel from enthusiasts on twitter? Absolutely not.
