I've been trying to find out more about the car and have started the the following newbie threads =>
1)
One about the colour - this red isn't original according to the Chassis ID tag

If you can help identifying the colour code please help - I want to save the dull paint work and learn the martial art of colour blending. The "new" paint job has been done really well so for now I think it is worth trying to save.
Mainly this needs to be done to stop me from ripping the vehicle to bits (as I nearly always do) and return it to the original colour (!)
2)
Another thread about seats
