To be fair...I did revise my statement to 'all UK GLs had bodycolour bumpers'....and that's a Europe-wide press release. Clearly some provinces got '340' bumpers on their 360 GLs. However, I've never seen a UK 360 of any trim level which had black bumpers from the factory :P

cheers

Me neither... I've seen GLs in other countries with black bumpers. But all of the UK spec Mk3 (Rupert.. picky :P) 360s I've ever seen have colour coded bumpers.
