Oh okay !!
I wanted silver grey, but had to settle for Titanium Silver instead !!
I hope to get it next week, otherwise i expect to be lumbered with a 530d for a few days.
Should be getting it DMS'd to 334bhp & 506lb/ft for 0-60 in around 5.9secs and 170mph top end pretty much as soon as I get it !!!
Woooohoooooooo

Cheers,
I love the look of Carbon Black, but after the Allroad which was in the wonderful Ebony Black pearl I realised that a vehicle that does 30k miles a year really shouldnt be black, unless I wanted to pay Gary/Shooters mortgage off early for him !!!
I think a set of PFC pads, better fluid should be all thats needed for the brakes, and maybe a set of 20" rims - probably "hard" 5 spokes should see me done as far as mods are concerned. Which is pretty much all I did with the Audi.
Should be a right laugh going to work every day in a car that does sub 6seconds to 60 !!! I currently use the van which even though its a quick van does it in about 11secs and only gives around 28mpg on average !!! ar should pay for itself.
I cant wait - although on wednesday when I decided to "have a look" at what was available I promised myself, karen, my dad, my accountant and the salesmen that I wouldnt be doing anything until January........then I had a bad day on friday and bought the car over the phone !!!
I really should see a therapist !!!
