    It’s a 208 , with black grills , the previous owner painted over the silver and Iam toying with the idea of returning them to OEM .
    Also it’s got a quad Ansa exhaust....I think a factory or dealer fit option .Again toying with fitting a single pipe 208 OEM ??

    Problem is red / black is such a nice contrast, ....mirrors wipers , bumper rubber , door rubbers etc ...not sure how red and silver would go ??

    Quad pipes are soooooo 70 ,s style wise for Italian cars ......still nice today on ALL modern stuff , BMW M s and Merc AMG , Maserati , the Q Alfa’s and course F cars ! Even a fiat500 Abarth 595 has quad pipes .

    There’s no front fogs or rears for that matter but the harness same as 308 is there so it was easy to mount and plug in theses DRL s
    DRL s seem so normal theses days in Europe and a bit like wearing seat belts it’s feels naked without .

    Question for 308 owners, hope you don’t mind me posting. I have a 246....but have married late and now have two little kids. Problem with the 246 is that it is strictly a 2-seater. The 308 has buckets that would be great for two little ones and would mean we could use it en famille. However.....has anyone even tried putting child car seats or boosters into their 308? I live in the U.K. and I think I have to put children is special seats.....but maybe this rule doesn’t apply to classic cars. But if it does, then I need to know whether a 308 is a starter.....or impossible. Thanks.

    Ive never tried . but I think it would depend on many different things. Will the booster fit into the rear butt space? will a seat be able to be held in place by only the lap belt with the retractable reel attached? also I cant remember how euro GT4 seat belts are. My US has no shoulder belts in the rear, its a 75

    You can fit a full sized front facing car seat in the front seat. The ones I had would not fit in the back seats. You can fit a small booster seat in the back for when the kids are older. I found an inflatable one that is fully approved on amazon and used that for years for my youngest son. This is the one I had:

    Hope this helps.

    Before Covid I was in the process of refurbishing my GT4. The medium term plan. (Hopefully before too long) is to remove the rear bucket seats, make a replica of the ‘rear seat delete’ option and fit isofix for proper child seats. Will be happy to share pictures once I make a start.
