British Bulldog,

Have fun!

I waitied nearly 10 months for mine and was worried it wouldn't be as good as I'd imagined it to be. And it wasn't, It was better!

I've done 350 miles now and it just get's better by the day.

There, that should help your waiting

Didnt get it from Sussex! From Altwood in Maidenhead!

Dealer experience was great, top notch customer care from start to finish. Many freebies (I cant say exactly what as you may use them and get more, or less!)

Suffice to say, 289 miles...and loving every minute! Better than I expected, feels more "tight" than the demo we drove!

Damn thing is dirty now though!

Another happy customer then.

Don't think I'll be negotiating freebies at your dealer. A little far for me to go. *points at Aussie flag*

Can I ask what sort of freebies you got, were they extras on the car or gifts etc. The dealer I went to wouldn't give me anything! I haven't picked the car up yet so I would like to go in armed!
