Well finally,tomorrow is the day to collect,i just hope the snow doesnt get any worse as that may stop me
getting there,We woke up to a good covering this morning :roll:

I have seen the alcantara roof lining fitted and am very happy with that,my mates were trying to convince me to leather it
but i just felt the colour was to light.
The alcantara just looks really classy imo and untill you see it in the flesh you cant appreciate how well it looks.

I have done all the seats,the parcel shelf,gear gaitor,handbrake cover,armrest and door cards and steering wheel.
I have not seen any of this in the car so am still very nervous that i have chose right so as you can imagine im a bit apprehensive.

Last time i saw the car it was covered in dust so i cant wait to give it a damn good clean and then go out and enjoy driving it and hearing
that v8 rumble :nogarors4:

Glad you sort of listened to me!

Right,just a quick update on my phone,we only just got to collect the car yesterday due to loads of snow. We left at 9.30am to collect and I got back at 8pm as I helped to refit the seats,door cards etc.
I am very happy with the job,its a bit brighter than I thought and you can't really see the light blue in the leather like we had hoped.
I did the harness holes in carbon and they maybe stand out a little to much lol.
A few teaser pics will be up soon.
Also today I went out at 8am to get the tubi fitted.we fired it up and it sounded a bit more fruity but once it had warmed up wow does it sound amazing.it turns you into a bit of a hooligan.
So not for the purists.
Ok I have just spent all this money on the interior that others may or may not like,but myself sat in the cockpit loved it especially with the added noise.What a great great drive home,I even went the long way round.
I must say I am really started to enjoy the fun this car brings :biggrin3:
