if it's just on one side, it's likely to have been scraped along another car and had a partial respray at some point...

'nother Sterling Silver here, given it's normally brown I dragged up this shot (thanks to Ziggy) as it's more appropriate to what it normally looks like and I can't be arsed to go outside to take one!

No... they are spelled differently! :wink:

That was a joke right?

Lachs silver is Lachs silver, and Sterling silver is Sterling silver... winkeye

That's a bit like saying "Is Navy Blue the same as Duck-egg Blue?"
