Finally Collected!

Finally, 3rd time lucky, I have now collected the car. Fantastic to drive, engine is great, will have to try hard to keep the revs down during the run in. Really pleased with the colour, looks great in the sun!

Jealous

Hi all, I am a newbie, so hello everyone.

I am so jealous of all you guys who have taken delivery this last couple of weeks. Ordered my Company car in May (Jet Black 120d SE with some nice bright Xenons etc) and I arranged to take delivery on 8th Sept as was expecting to be in the country (travel a lot). However, I got called out to Brazil on 3rd and the car has been delivered to work and one of the more trustworthy ladies (car nut heself actually) had to take the handover for me. Mind you did a good job as she spotted a chip on front bumper so I guess that will have to be sorted...

Now stuck in Brazil for another 3 weeks or so and with my nice new car with 1 mile on the clock in the car park at work. All the bar stewards there are telling me how nice it runs, how fast it goes, what good donuts it pulls and that I might need some more fuel when I get back... I have all the paint pre-treatment, dodo wax and Mags alloy protector waiting at home and really looking forward to spending some time with her. Might even say hi to the family when I get back too:smile: Can't wait.

I ticked most of the boxes on the order as you can see. Its a great car though, trying hard to keep the revs down but it just wants to accelerate, will be great once run in.

The bumper work as well is excellent, you would never know, in fact they don't even tell dealers if they have done minor works to car before it get to them, really happy with it so far.

Just don't park under any trees, bird crap and sap from trees don't mix with a shiny new car
