Today got to see Hector Blackstorm in flesh as was visiting service station for my Hector's regular service. Dark chrome grill and red brake calipers looked good however black seats had white stitching which was turn off for me, red stitching would have been nicer.
Overall looked nice because of dark chrome which is better than excessively shiny silver chrome of normal Hector.

Few pictures which I took.

I think it would make more sense for the Hector Blackstorm if MG discontinues the black colour on the regular variant, just like TaMo does not provide its cars in black, other than the #dark edition!
