  • Today!!

    Less than 3 and half hours to go!

    Needless to say, working is proving impossible this morning... Lot's of clock watching going on.

    I've read all the "things to check on delivery" threads, so I think I'm well prepared... Only thing I wondering about are the suspension chocks that might not have been removed (so I've read). Any pics of what I should be looking for?

    If you haven't, take a good read of all the posts about vehicle run-ins.

    In summary, give the car a fair beating the first 100km. Don't totally hammer it to red line every gear, just be more agressive than usual.

                      Thanks... tried the IMG tag, but it didn't want to work for me... Thanks for posting it up

                          nice!

                          to use the img tag:

                          [IMG]insert image url here[/IMG]

                          or just press the little image button below the "undo" button in the message typing window

                            It's great... Took it for a run up to the Hunter via the back roads which was fantastic. Everything I expected. I just love the torque compared to the Astra I was driving, amongst all the other "luxuries".

                            Only downsides so far:

                            The dealer didn't have a disc for the sat nav and it won't let me change the language without it, so it's in German at the moment (and obviously doesn't have any maps). I should have a disc by wed, so no biggie.

                            I'm finding the seat a little tight for my generous posterior, particularly on the right hand side. I think it'll just take a bit of getting used to and maybe a slight change in seating position to over come that one.

                            Certainly no regrets!
