Looks good, man. Congratulations on the new car.
Re. the driver's door handle, I think I can understand the deletion: in my (pre-LCI) car, my left knee keeps resting / rubbing up against the vertical handle and, a year into this situation, I'm starting to get RSI-type pain at the exact point in my knee that usually rests against the handle. I guess it's just the way I need to sit to reach the wheel, pedals and controls (at 5' 8", I'm not that tall), but I do find myself thinking it would be better to not have that vertical handle there.

If your looking to change your alloys mate I am looking for some 172's if you want to sell them?
P.S. do you know what level of tints are on your back windows, your car is exactly how I want mine
Lovely looking machine.

Lovely looking machine.Will keep you posted if I decide to go ahead with other alloys........
Ref: Tinting - Car is standard Factory spec "Sun protection glazing - Option Code 761, which also gets you Graduated Tint on main windscreen - Option code 354" , not sure on percentage of cover - Front side windows have no tint, ......photo may have darkened the image...
I'm sure local dealer could tell you tint figures %......?
