After much order changing and anticipation, it has arrived.

BRG/W MCS. Stripes and spots make it look fantastic.

I want to get St Georges Cross number plates and then it will be complete. Any recommendations (good or bad)?

I had many rethinks, especially on the colour. Initially I was going for B/W with a check roof but I thought that was too much, and then thought of the IB/W but (sorry IBers) thought that was to common, so decided on BRW/W.

Also, have the silver interior instead of the Alloy "Nike's on dashboard" look and I'm very happy with that too.

Only gripe is the CD jumps and there is the odd rattle here and there. Don't care about that at all.

Traded a 2 1/2 year old new style A4 1.8T. People said I was mad. People are wrong.

Will post pictures soon....

Enjoy!

Sounds great. Looking forward to the sweet pictures.

Congrats!

You can't go wrong with BRG/W...are the wheels white too? If so...congrats again because BRG/W/W is one of the most spectacular combos out there!

Enjoy!

Scott C · Nov 3rd, 2003, 12:03 PM

Decided to go with standard alloys, rather than white. I thiught the white ones would get too dirty, and was worried about scratching them. Was very tempted though.

sergio rollerfunk · Nov 3rd, 2003, 08:18 PM

I know, that's the downside about white wheels...they're always dirty.

I use to wash my car once every 10 days, but my wheels get cleaned every 3 days.

Congrats! Welcome to the BRG MCS club, picked mine up 3 weeks ago. 1000 or so miles later and I still get a big stupid grin on my face every time I start it up..... I too went with the silver wheels, and I end up washing them twice as often as the rest of the car, can't wait to get my cooperflag BRG/W checked sunroof graphic installed this week!!

jsteine2 · Nov 3rd, 2003, 11:37 PM

GAMini and Scott C.... when are we going to see some pictures? I need to know what to look forward to...

John

GAMini · Nov 4th, 2003, 12:21 PM

When I get the car back from having the Aux/Input installed tonight I'll take some pictures and post them. For the time being I get to drive around a sweet looking Pepper White/Black roofed MC. Little different feel to the MC, not bad but I am glad I got my MCS.

LMB · Nov 5th, 2003, 12:22 AM

Have fun Scott.

Nice colour.

ruthie · Nov 5th, 2003, 12:47 AM

GAMini · Nov 6th, 2003, 12:36 PM

You give me great joy...

My BRG/W/W with white racing stripes, cordoba beige, and anthracite trim was just offloaded from the TOSCA on Nov 5. I eagerly await it in St Louis!
