I've had quotes from £700 (with 5yncb). Mazda use Zurich, and extract the pish somewhat.

Congrats Rob - lets see some pics ASAP.

Why do I feel like the only one who ordered relatively early, hasn't got SatNav or Sunroof who hasn't got a 'it's here in the dealership' call yet.. :(

Seen the car now!

Or rather seen several. dealer had 2 titanium in (aswell as 1 red, 1 black and a silver + mebee others in the mechanics bit).

Dont know which tit one was ours tho, but who cares. Looks like its roughly about the same length as the focus too, which is a suprise - though somewhat lower ;)

Still hoping I can get at the weekend, but the dealer hasnt PDI'd any so far, so long shot. Have a picture, but on film (gah I know....) mebee get it developed and scan it in sometime...

Sorry, should be there now.

I try to quickly upload something, and find none of my ISP's want to let me in, so I've scrablled round for a hour trying to find some unspecting site to host it.

It certainly will be, so here is another pic to keep myself going.http://rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/files/djr_rx8_006s.jpg But at least I will have it on Monday for a trip up to Derbyshire to show it off to some friends. Tuesday booked off for some driving, pictures and polishing. :)
