Sep 1st IB/W S comes home!

Had a bit of a touch and go journey to the dealer. Couldn't be bothered to put some fuel in so I thought I'd take a chance with what was left - trip computer showed 18 mile range - only 13 to the dealer. Even though I tried to drive with a light foot I got to the point where it showed a 1 mile range and I was still about 5 miles away. So I bottled it and put a couple of quid in!

Anyway - a couple of pics of the new arrival

Here with the outgoing S:


and on the drive at home


and the other side

That is a super looking 's' I love the colour it looks fab! Like your technique with the petrol...... I am awaiting delivery of my 's' next week, but sold my MX5 a week ago i had lots of petrol left so i drove 100 unnecessary miles that day to use it up, it was bad enough that he was having my car, there was no way he was getting my petrol aswell! I don't know what got into me i am usually a very kind and generous person.

ENJOY YOUR COOL CAR!

Looks perfect - and they even fitted a sunroof (perhaps it's the one they missed of mine?)

Congrats!
