Still waiting for my 'roc from the bodyshop!! Missing the car everyday... Driving a roc for so long, I forgot what it was like to drive a car with poor handling and sub-standard acceleration... Even though the hire car (infiniti) is a 2.2 diesel, it feels like it doesn't have anywhere near the torque of my 'roc, which is really surprising... I must check the figures.

Yeh Dectane, two weeks now no issues. I heard they don't fit properly but no gaps or alignment issues with mine, just a bit fiddly to fit with the screw thing.

Sorry for the late reply. Do you mean the cover I wrapped in carbon fibre?

Just installed the Calearo 7677932 DAB+ antenna, the signal is amazing compared to the OEM window antenna.
I can defintely recommend everyone who lives in an area with bad reception to install this antenna.
I have only noticed 1 signal loss when driving through a tunnel during a 2h drive.
