Alitalia every time for me, it will look like a mini Stratos and that can't be a bad thing :D

I like the Alitalia colours .. if you have a Stratos, but on Exxy I think it looks a bit ... errr ... wannabee :shock: There's an Exxy with Alitalia paint scheme in one of the old club mags - I saw it last night. Can't for the life of me remember which one though.

The Gulf scheme gets my vote this time.

Agree with you Mark, I like the first one...

Oh dear... that's a 3 way split... probably not much help :!: :?

Live and let live.

Abarth red and yellow, or Gulf colours. Love the old Ford GT40 in baby blue and orange...maybe even 1970's Martini?!!

Dont shoot me but, i really dont like the red and yellow it looks a bit cheap and the colours are what was left in the shed, i have seen an x1/9 in the GT40 colours and it looked pretty cool.

Not sure if you can buy the decals off the shelf, but ive had a brain wave of an idea, i plan on buying a model and seeing if a graphics company can scan the sheet of decals and increase the size, do you think that might work?

I agree it doesnt work on that one, stick a bigger front spoiler and wide arches with wider wheels, with the graphics a little tweeked it may, but still prefer the blue,

One thing i aways want someone to see an X1/9, not it trying to be another car, the baby stratos idea puts me off the Alitalia scheme.

HERE

Are probably most of the decals you will need..! I'd love a white X' in full Martini set up, but install a decent motor so its not 'all show...' etc.
Do it.
