Keep it stock, and if you must make a few changes keep them subtle, especially if you don’t keep cars for very long. A stock car will be much easier to shift. Not that I’ve anything against those that bling up their RRS’s, each to their own.
I’m just a fan of keeping a car as it came out of the factory. I won’t ever fit an updated radio, nor will I fit led bulbs to the interior lights because that’s not how it was delivered when new.

Fair points....I just find the current bits and bobs a bit boring as they`re a dull grey now. I`ll have a rethink then Thumbs Up Steve.

Colour code the door handles silver at least, they look "crap" in grey no matter what colour the car. That's my personal opinion as well.

Cheers

Each to their own. I'm for a bit more chrome. It came with door mirror covers in chrome and I've added a few more bits. Photo will follow.

Latest addition was a chrome strip across the rear. No photo of that yet. Only did it today. Robin

Why not, I like originality. There’s no rule saying you must customise, and there’s no rule to say you shouldn’t.
Everyone’s different

I do understand where you are coming from, particularly with classic or more interesting cars (or even boring ones - I was recently delighted to come across a 1998 vw polo with the original sony/vw cassette player and the original 'Welcome to your volkswagen cassette, voiced by Quentin Wilson). However for something I actually use, I see no reason not only improve it. Lack of DAB and Bluetooth music is very annoying and the of interior lights for my backseat passengers is just nuts, even my '1995 Range Rover classic has an interior light in the back. It works too!

Back on topic - I really like the grey door handles on my black sport and didn't buy one because it had chrome mirrors fitted. I'm glad people like you exist because there are nice, original, examples for me to buy and tweak Smile
