Not got any more of mine at the moment mate but I have a link here for another guys.

September must seem an age away rite now, well worth the wait though I can assure you.

I had the same problem, I changed from red to silver and I hadnt even seen silver, the first time was when I picked it up as I was in Iraq before hand and there aint many out here. I was not disappointed though I can assure you and glad I didnt get red. In the flesh silver really does look good, better than black because it makes the front stand out a lot more.

Totally agree about silver vs. black and red.  Ordered mine in February and still haven't heard when I'll get it.  I was hoping to have got a build date by now....any ideas on the typical delivery time?

Lead time for my orignal order was quoted as 12 weeks but at the 12 week point I was quoted another 2 months possibly. Hence I changed my order to one that was available straight away. There are plenty about if you are prepared to take what they have, as I said before, for me the change worked out for the best anyway, better spec, better colour etc.

Thanks mate - You've re-assured me loads!
I originally ordered the red, but after three days of deliberation I changed my mind to the silver!!

Good to hear your thoughts because I was still a little unsure of whether I'd done the right thing!

Thanks for the link to the extra pics too - It does look very well, but I prefer you wheels!

Thanks again.[/glow]

If you want any more phots of mine I am back in the UK next week for a few days and can take some more. If you want anything specific let me know.

Totally agree, the 18s are much better, the colour of them etc just makes them stand out a lot more.

Thanks mate - If you could take a couple of pics of the wheels to show off the colour differences and another one form the front to show up the red trim that would be great.

Stay safe,
Cheers!
