YES, YES, YES IT'S HERE!!

Saw my car today, Velocity Red with Red/Black Leather, arrived at Dealer today around 4.30!!

Went straight up there and even in fading light, I was just jumping for joy with my choice. Dealer was over the moon as it's been a long 11 months for him as well.

HAPPY, PROUD, CHUFFED etc...

It's going to be a long wait whilst my Dealer sorts everything out.

1st RED, Hope so!!

Cheers
Simon

You lucky so and so. :D

I still don't know when mine is coming.... but I am so glad others are getting that warm glow of potential ownership.

Should have it Thursday or Friday:D

Still it's here and I can touch it, smell it and dribble over it, that's all that matters after 11 months;)

Cheers

Hooray ! ! !

Well done oilman , chuffed for you.
After all that worry about geography and you are going to be amongst the first. However - given that we both ordered in Jan you certainly deserve it !

Drive mine to work today (1st time proper use).
Sooooooo good. The best thing I can say is that this is the most complete car I have ever driven.

Look forward to your diary of the 'day of collection' - it would be interesting to know how many forum members are due to pick their cars up by the end of the week..?

The mechanics are on the PDI course today/tomorrrow, so cant start PDI until Monday.

Allow 2/3 days for PDI and accessories and I will most likely pick up next Weds/Thurs.

I cant wait a few more days now its here, after all Ive waited 10 months!
