Nein.

The brakes should be bedded in carefully before using in any sporty driving. Essentially it tells Wayne he should drive it really slowly for the first 36 months, and gradualally open the car up later in 2016...

If it's in the dealer, then their prep time is literally just a few hours to unwrap, check and clean, so just a case of getting a time slot with them. Should be way before Xmas I'd have thought

Haha :notworthy:

You boys have been busy. :jump:

Yes it's Sprint Blue. At the time it was one of two, the other being supplied by Bath Audi which had the black optics pack.

Yes all being well she's going to Jay for him to make her sparkle :thumb:

Travelled to see the car yesterday and really chuffed I chose Sprint. Despite being still wrapped up its looks amazing, will add a few pics later. Popped in to see Jay and his good lady on the way home to sort out the finish/detail etc

Good journey although the spray and rain on the way home was miserable. Mrs Choppers did a sterling job at the wheel. I'm unable to drive due to major feet surgery :ban: so all in all a good day. Got to see the car at long last plus catch up with some great people, thanks to Andrew, Jay and Steph for there time and hospitality yesterday, oh and my wonderful wife for driving :notworthy:

Oh Andrew AByss, I hope the other one is Sepang blue..... :rocker:
