I used to have an Orange P7 in the same colour scheme. It used to be chrome but I left it in a supermarket car park over night (you could do this in Warwickshire in the 90s) and the chrome fell off. So LBS called Orange and they said they'd respray it any colour I wanted, so I went for team orange (obviously), although you couldn't buy a new one in that colour at the time.
Then I had my lovely Pace suspension forks stolen when I was at university, so I refitted the original forks which were still chrome. So it looked a bit like that.
The story doesn't end happily, as the rest of it was stolen from my back garden in Harlesden. I don't think I even have any photos of it now =(
I had an all British parts policy, so there was lots of contrasting blue Hope bits (the hubs, BB etc) and some blue x-lite bits. It was lovely.
