Essexboy · 11th August 2007, 17:20

Have finally ordered my car

Now I just have to wait until W/E 23 Sept!

Come on!

illegalhunter · 11th August 2007, 18:11

Thats a quick lead in for your car . What colour did you go for then?

FWH · 11th August 2007, 18:20

It will be worth it!

Essexboy · 12th August 2007, 00:23

Went for vivid blue in the end.

Got it quicker coz it was a GT, the times on standard type S was quite a bit longer.

Essexboy · 13th September 2007, 21:28

It's at the dealers now, getting it Sat 22nd.

Can't wait, but I reckon those 9 days are going to drag!

ChillTypeS · 13th September 2007, 22:02

what options do you go for?

Essexboy · 13th September 2007, 22:27

Getting rear parking sensors, side body protectors and mats.

Also getting the trim painted body coloured, but not by the dealer.

ChillTypeS · 13th September 2007, 22:29

I've got a Garmin Nuvi sat nav and it's wicked. Only cost me £200 so it's miles cheaper than the Honda one....

I have the Nuvi, great sat nav, ask the garage to hard wire it in for you. There are other threads that explain the best way to do it , but basically a new cigarette socket is wired into the fuse box and the Nuvi plugged in as normal, but all the wires hidden behind the dash.

Sleepless night for someone!!!

TTDegs · 22nd September 2007, 07:27

1 hour to go....

Essexboy · 22nd September 2007, 12:47

Just back from my first drive

First impression was that the engine sounded like a tractor, but now I've done nearly 100 miles it's sounding much better.

It's sooooooooo good, absolutely wicked

Well pleased with it

Pablo · 22nd September 2007, 13:16

TTDegs · 22nd September 2007, 13:30

Essexboy · 22nd September 2007, 18:31
