Looking good, enjoy! I must admit I’ve never seen a red one.
Wow 10 weeks was an amazing length of time though, I’ve been waiting since 8th of Feb; Still it was built last week so just a few more weeks to go and I’ll be joining you here

It'll get a lot better than it is right now once it's ran in - the 170's are very tight straight out of the box.
My 12 mile commute on mixed roads is giving me about 48mpg, with putting my foot down a bit once the car has warmed up 1/2 way through the journey.

Went for a drive down the coast from South Shields through Seaburn into Sunderland and back to South Shields, about 20 miles on the run and got............ wait for it........ 62 mpg
Must've been driving like miss Daisy - constant 50mph in 6th all the way? Was gentle(ish) coming back from Sunderland to North Shields going longway around and got 56mpg for the trip. You wait until it's run in, loosening up and you start putting your foot down.

There's a Salsa locally, with just storm troopers and a viper it was difficult to see the Rocco colours in the flesh. Always liked red cars but SWMBO wanted the Indium. Really envious of your 10 week wait. Hopefully I'll be picking up mine this coming Thursday after a 25 week wait.
