Picked it up!
After an 8 month wait, picked up my new R this morning. Efficient, no frills handover at JCB Medway, suited me fine.
Formalities over, started it up and off we went. Only driven 50 miles so far, but, it's THE BEST first 50 miles in any car I've ever had. Awesome and exhilarating!!! It's on another level compared to my Mk6 GTI. 8 months wait melted away with every mile. Oh, and shod with Conti 5P's! The R and I are going to have fun.....and then some!
Here's few pics, after I gave it a quick wash. I'd asked JCB not to wash or prep it and they duly complied. In fact it was filthy, lol. Needs a proper detail but all in good time.
CONGRATULATIONS.
Your car is the best R I have seen, bar none. Perfect R for perfect Rebecca.
Asker! My darling, thank you so much.
It's quite novel having my Christian name initial on the front, rear and each side of my car. Nothing like a bit of overkill!!!
I'm going to tease those who have no idea what an R is (almost everyone) that it is just a normal Golf that's been customised for me.
The gullible fools will believe it and think I'm a complete narcissist, up my own @rse with self indulgent arrogance, haha! I, in the meantime will simply enjoy driving (and cleaning) my lovely R!
Don't you so prefer DBP to Night Blue?
