|  a very happy new owner!!! dear friends, i am a very happy new owner since 14:00 hrs today. delivery was very smooth, and the ad offered the hood aerofins and the first service for free, to compensate for aa) a late delivery (car was booked originally to be delivered end may early june), and bb) forgetting to order the car de-badged (which he actually did in-house). all other ordered extras are ok, paint and electrics are also fine. bluetooth works perfect, and sound is excellent (audio 20, looking sufficient to me for the time being/not a big navi fan here anyway). to be honest, i thought that my emotions would be flatter, but when i saw it be driven in at the delivery room, i was so very much excited, and still am... delivery, including paperwork, lasted about 45 minutes, and was very explicit. it was conducted by a mechanic who was very friendly and with real overall knowledge... i will take it out for a ride, and will revert with some photos during the coming weekend. for the moment i have to sit in office... thanks to all for keeping me wonderful company during the waiting time all previous months. kind regards ir-ops |

| Congratulations Ir-ops. Get ready to clay-bar and "seal" the paint while it's still new. I believe AutoGlym or Zaino will work well on a black car.
