Has anyone else got the Ixo version of Ogier's Monte 17 winning Fiesta WRC? Just interested that the front wheel arches are plain silver on the Ixo, yet Spark seem to have re-produced a sort of chequered flag pattern overlay on their one. Most of the pics I've seen on line suggest Ixo have got this right.

Cheers Paul I would always go with Spark however the Ixo price point is more favourable!

This image does not show any obvious overlay maybe as you say a really subtle effect that perhaps Spark have over emphasised?

Slightly more obvious in this shot:

Ironically the 2018 car does not appear to have the overlay!

Ive just seen a close up of the Ixo 2017 Tanak car. It does have the mixed pattern on the silver front arches.

Yes got that one as well and you are correct.

The only other thing if I'm being picky, which I usually am, is that I think the Ixo version suffers a bit from their Max Power approach to rim size. It does look slightly pimped up but not necessarily a bad thing.
