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... :yes:

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! :) :) :)

Any chance of some more photos in different light please mate? There are hardly any of this colour (which I have coming my way ;-)

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!
