Picked "Homer" up from the dealer

I collected Homer from the dealer today and absolutely love how he's turned out. The pics haven't come out that well as the camera isn't great but the bodykit and black stripes take the edge off the Mellow Yellow nicely.

Love it...!! Going to be out driving for the rest of the weekend now

Spec: Cooper-S, JCW Tuning kit, JCW Bodykit, JCW gearknob, Bluetooth/USB, MFSW, Auto Aircon, DSC, LSD, HiFi, Tinted windows, 17" Crown alloys, fog lamps, driving lamps, black viper stripes and mellow yellow/piano black interior.

Very nice! The mellow yellow is better than I thought! I agree, the stripes set it off nicely!

Very true - it certainly can't be missed easily!

Undecided on the HiFi yet as only really tried an IPod with it so far and need to try a few CDs and play with the settings. It doesn't immediately grab me with a wow factor - the factory stereo I had on my 2005 plate Corolla T-Spirit with 6 speakers was pretty good and maybe I just need to get the settings right as it doesn't sound as good as that so far.

I didn't go for the full Chilli pack but selected certain bits from it. The cost was already pushing it somewhat and there were bits on the Chilli pack I just didn't want.
