Driver's door interior avoided? I know it's "different"...

Fogs. Fogs. Fogs????

Or are they no big deal?

Enjoy the lunch.

Is the car carbon black? It's kinda hard to tell.

After your first wash you'll be able to tell us he paintwork is dimpled. Seems to be on another example in this forum.

Maybe they've started using Hammerite.

First pics - will load up more once the car has been cleaned again (been away for 3 days and already clocked up 600 miles) these pics were taken at a friends house with a little over 20 miles on the clock...(you may notice the pre LCI 535 in the back ground - he is not jealous at all honest!)
Congratulations and enjoy the new ride.

First wash has already been executed (it needs its second already!) and I can report that paint finish is faultless

So unfortunately it's a sampling thing.

I hope they get their QA sorted soon.

You can make me even more jealous though by reporting at a later date, when the car is better run in, what kind of consumption you are getting.

It must be an improvement on mine!!
