PCX 2013 in Blue

Post by DaddyCool273 »

Greetings all!

Have the chance of a PCX 125 in Blue, one previous owner, only 1300 on the clock, registered 2013 for £1795.

Slapping down a deposit today, to pick up Friday. Any thoughts? A bargain? Stepping up from a Sym Shark 50.

Was the Blue a special/limited edition? Tough to find any info on the interweb.

Cheers very muchly! :)

No, it was a standard colour option.

Welcome, welcome! :P A rarely seen color aboard the forum!

Called Petrol Metallic Blue, correct? I never saw one in person (not a U.S.A. Color) and on the forum not many own one (that I'm aware of).
Looking online the color looks blue-green. Tell us DaddyCool, does it look like that in person? :P

Some like it, some don't, but that's the same with everything. Hey! I have a White, others think that's boring. Blah! So What ;) Tis yer choice.

Friday is just a kiss away :P E X C I T E D ?

Both colors are great! I would have loved to have the option of one of those colors. In the USA we had the choice of Red or Black. I have the red one.

Unfortunately for us American owners, we could buy almost all of the parts to convert ours to that color but we would have a problem where our turn signal indicators attach. Baah... it is such a pretty color.

Mel - you've taken yours apart a few times - could you paint the panels cheaper than buying in replacements?

Looks like the same blue which is available for the 2016 Forza in Thailand, it was my 2nd choice for colour.

The question of whether it would cost less to have the panels painted than to buy new ones is something that has been debated quite a bit on this forum. I think it will depend on the prices charged in each region for painting. The best way to paint this bike is to take it apart and paint each part. If the shop charges by the piece, it could get expensive.

Thar she be! Very nice DaddyCool. It's definitely a different color from the Blues I'm familiar with. We've never had that color choice here. Unique 8)
Bet you're having the time of your Life!
