New to me, and off to TTS Roadsport this week for a big service which is very reasonably priced.

Welcome and FON if we haven't already said that!

Enjoy, and always remember its all about GPM (Grins per mile) not MPG!!

Have been FON'd a few times now which threw me at first!

Yes, MPG is not a big deal as don't do many miles. Great car.

Number 266.

Was sold in Belfast, then Fontain.

May change the wipers but like stance as it is. Will be staying standard this one.

Saw this one on eBay recently. Have you take the s-line badges off the rear doors yet or the non gen decals off the headrests?

I was holding out for a plus model for 3 months but they’re hardly ever up for sale and when they do come around they’re sold before you can make a phone call!

Nope. Dont plan to as could do more harm than good, particularly the headrests if the leather beneath logo is now a different colour. Badges on side say DTM. They maybor may not stay. I did put the grill rings back to silver.

You could replace the headrests with ones from a breaker, would certainly look nicer as a result. Did you go down the OEM route for the badge or was it just a simple case of removing the black coating off the one already fitted?
