 :razz: I have her! vivid blue (like hipposniper's) beautiful.  I have driven her around the West End (London) so far - parked easily with her - easy steering, comfortable seats- visibility is so good too.  Other cars even seemed to give me more space which considering I am talking "road-rage" London, says a lot.  The audio system with the ipod facility was a real joy to use and worked straightaway without any fiddling.    I really enjoyed driving her - "Fifi".  I have now driven with 4 of us  - plenty of room - and with only two - great.  happy times everyone, Petrang.

Welcome aboard, to "FIFI" :D

Did they fit your CAT1 alarm and reversing sensors?

Hi kind Shambles - what a memory you've got.  I am embarrassed to admit it but yes I have both front and rear sensors.  and mudflaps and upgrade to the alarm to make it cat 1. and also rear boot protector with the door cill guards for the front and back and carpet mats.  The dealer said the front sensors were a pain to install and I'm going to be turning them off more than I am going to use them - he's probably right too.  Oh but I did enjoy driving her on Saturday.  safe driving and thanks again for all your advice, your email and support - Petrang  :)

Hi, no not the sports trim.  Enough is enough  and she is beautiful - lots of admiring comments as well.  Best wishes, petrang.

Glad you got it ok.

I think I've waited a fortnight longer you now! Still I only have a couple of more weeks to wait and then the dealer will be in breach of contract. That will be fun.  :mrgreen:
