You can call BS all you want, but I'm 100% certain Magenta was a factory color. I have a '96 XJ 4-door in Magenta. Paint is faded and a little rust on the drivers floor pan, but not too bad of shape. I've owned it for a few years.

Factory paint code for Magenta is PH1. They only made Magenta for the '96 model year. It wasn't a very attractive color... still isn't lol. But here I found myself owning one. If I remember, I'll post up pics a little later. Mine is far from factory though.

They hate it when you get out of your car, I have truly had guys motion toward their gun when I got out
what can I say, I have a friendly face
maybe you look more intimidating than I do 🤣

I thought you were in Oz too, awg?

Here they breathalise you in the car (or at least in Queensland) , no need to get out. I'd be towering over them and they'd have to hold the machine up too high 🤣

Officially no, but I have a hatch-like construction cut out on the driver's side so I can stick my head out.

Yes, I am in NSW, and they breathalise you in the car, hence why they dont like it if you get out

I know to sit politely in the car with my hands visible and follow instructions while they do their job

This guy was a real jerk, and wanted to search me and my car, so I had to get out, lets just say I was unimpressed with his attitude, and we fell into verbal disagreement

almost like "Rambo First Blood"
