Congratulations. I was originally told my delivery date would be the last week in December, so decided to scuttle off to Florida for a month. Dealer told me the day after I booked the flights that the delivery date had been brought forward, to the 18th of December. The day before I fly!
They are going to store it at the dealers until I get back on the 20th of December. Cant wait to get back and I havent left yet!

LOL...it'll ber bitter sweet, nice break in some decent climes, but you wont have the doom and gloom feeling when you get back

Look forward to the pics

Sorry should have read delivery date 18th of November (Doh). Would have been over the moon, talk about best laid plans. Still, cant complain really, as you say something to look forward to when I get back. Pics will follow. You never know yours may arrive a bit earlier than expected. According to the dealers the last few that they have sold have had their delivery dates revised to an earlier one.

I have my delivery/hand over spot booked. Next friday 12.30. Paperworks been completed just need to drive my current merc in and swap them over Going to be a long week me thinks.

Made worse by the fact I have a dentist appointment next friday morning to have a tooth pulled out.

Bitter sweet day...

I have already apologised to the salesman saying I may be very ****** off when I come in to collect my car

Excellent!

It's so exciting!!!

I am currently in my company's office in Leeds and going back to Nottingham at 1.30pm and I am excited about the drive haha

 

[jasemc678]

Have you got a first drive route lined up? Not near any speed cameras is prob good idea

Nice to have a date and time to look forward to (pity about the tooth)

 

[MarriedBlonde]

I do indeed Bit of motorway, bit of a-road and a nice long b-road blast.

I have promised my 6 year old son that I will go and pick him up from school which will curtail any lengthy drives...

Running in period is a bitch!

Moff,

Until very recently I do 400-500 miles a week for my commute, I now only do 8 miles a day to the train station and back. It is going to take forever to get a 1000 miles on the clock.

I am looking for any excuse to get some miles under its belt. Theres an air cooled VW show in wales this sunday (I have a 1969 VW camper) that I am contemplating going to in it just for an excuse to drive it

4500revs, no WOT and keep it under 85. It's going to kill me.

I just popped out to pick up a few things and took a detour on the way home... dropped her into M and had a bit of a play... I like it when the dash goes red to change up followed by a nice crack of the exhaust. Played like a child nailing it in 2nd to let go of the throttle to hear it spit and gurgle on the over-run...

11.7mpg

 

[MarriedBlonde]

You are not helping with the wait...

 

[ghibbett]

The exhaust crack is great, isn't it!!

 

[c_200k]

11.7mpg bloody hell i thought i was doing bad with 13.4 oh well it's all worth it in the end

 

[jasemc678]

I have to wait longer!

Going in on the 11th to sort paperwork


Will have to make do with listening to your fun and games!
