Well, today's the day....
So, after 17 weeks and 2 days (it feels like much longer), I'm off to pick up my 'Roc at 1pm this afternoon!
It really is ridiculous how excited I am, even the fact it's grey and miserable here in Oxford hasn't dampened my spirits!
I know this is a pics forum, so will post some pics when I get back...

Re: Well, today's the day....
Ok! I worked it out.....
Well, first impressions are excellent... It really is so much fun to drive, and I've had loads of head turns whilst driving!
I love the colour too... It's even better than I imagined. When the sun gets on it, there is a really nice silver / light blue fleck in the paint which really shines and lifts the colour.
It (so far) is everything I hoped for, and more! It's really good with the fuel but also goes like stink when you need / want it to! The 17 week wait was completely worth it!

Nice one, although I am sure once I get my car the time spend on the forum will decrease, due to being in the car rather than thinking about driving it!Andyh79 wrote:Sorry mort, haven't been on here for ages!
