Many thanks.

very nice indeed..............I would leave it just as it is, as I think it looks sporty but also classy, if you know what I mean.

ps it's so nice I went back and looked at it again !!

PW/PW looks great, especially without graphics, but then I am one for plain-looking cars which have far-from-plain performance and driving pleasure! Mine's PS/PS, had it over a year now and I've never felt the need to stick any go-faster stripes on yet .

Very nice Pure White
Simply stunning
Do a plain jane I say and leave it as it... haha
I keep on thinkin' of addin' graphics and stuff but then sometimes the plain look can be rather classy...

If the world didn't suck we'd all fall off!

Looks lovely as is. I'd leave it alone..............
though I'd be tempted at a later date to add a JCW carbon bonnet scoop..........
and maybe some carbon mirror caps.......................
and a carbon tailgate handle............................

aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhrrrrrrgggh

Must stop spending..................................

Awww, I bet your g/f's terribly dissappointed you've sprained your ankle....

ALTHOUGH SHE NEEDS A BIT OF GUIDANCE, LESLEY WILL BE MY BIATCH FOR NOW...!

Picked it up at 1:30, I havn't had a play with it yet as I had a rather messy night last night And the thought of taking one of her alloys out on day one doesnt appeal!

Looks great tho, and seems to go like stink (ill confirm this when I get behind the wheel!)

Anyhows here are a couple more shots (still on my naff phone) will try and give it a good swisswax session over the weekend and do some half decent shots.

I have no idea

Speeding has never killed anybody, suddenly becoming stationary... that's what gets you!
