Nice car DK, as much as I like the alu trim on yours I do like the rad grilles to match in black and couldn't be bothered cleaning exhausts with metal polish any more so black pack for me is ideal!

Done 1k miles, play time now! Avaraging 28mpg at present which isn't too shabby.

I normally would agree
But I am loving the matt alu on this car
You need to see it in person to appreciate the effect

why do you only keep your cars for such a short time?

Excellent - I'd be hard pushed to choose between Daytona or Suzuka as my favourite on this car!. Looks great!

How are you finding it now that you have driven it a few days DK? You'll probably do more miles in a week than some of us do in a month.
