At last!

Post by simc »

Ordered August 16th, the Viper will arrive Monday. Was it worth the wait? Will the niggling feeling that I should have gone for a safer colour come back to bite me ? I will know by next weekend. Any recommendations on how to treat new paintwork. Wax now, or leave well alone? Will post pics.

I am assuming you have not let the dealer near it with autoglym lifegrime, sorry lifeshine!

If so, I would get some sort of sealant on to it ASAP, and wax it too.
:yes:

finally get out and give me a good ol' drive! :clap:

I hope so. Over the last few months i've noticed every scirocco on the road . All CW, black, or rising blue. Got me worried. The VG will stand out, and it is a heritage colour for the 'roc. Trouble is, i'm old enough to remember that!
