Strangely there is no colour code on the car. Just the small bit saying "rot"

The interior trim seems to be a very very dark wood colour. It looks like a greying black but with wood grain?

Dealers on Thursday or Saturday, so hopefully I'll get the colour confirmed, plus a full list of all of the extras fitted to the car as I'm still not sure what's standard and what's extra.

Fitted the Xenons over the weekend (see the E60 section from yesterday for my fitting photos) so now I can actually see in the dark.

Filled up this evening on the way home and it's averaged 29.2 MPG. Well pleased.

And..... above all. I'm still Chuffed
