At last the Brits have something to cheer about!

Yep, you guessed it, the cars are arriving, KEF has is Black one, Morganrogers his Titanium one and my Red one arrived today, almost 11 months after ordering it!!

Pleased? Bloody delighted!!!:D

Too dark for pics today but hopefully I'll get some tomorrow. Car due to be picked up Thurs/Fri.

It was the first time I've seen Velocity Red in the flesh and although the light was poor, it gleamed. The Red/Black Leather combo looked great as well.

Look out for loads of pics of the Brits cars over the next week!

Cheers

Great color choice, wait until you see it in the sunlight. Also, I've heard the red is actually faster. Enjoy!!
