Title: my edition 30 has arrived
Post by: bmx on 17 March 2007, 16:13: My edition 30 arrived on Friday, I love this car. Power delivery is superb, better than I expected, handling is superb, again better than I expected. Love the look, even like the alloys now, not sure if to swap for my 19Ãƒâ€šÃ¢â‚¬Â CH?
Comments so far from people have been:-

That interior looks ace, I love it (bmw m3 csl owner)
CanÃƒâ€šÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t believe how good it looks in the flesh (R32 owner)
The front of that looks awesome (new corvette owner)
So far all positive comments.

This is the 1st new car I have ever had, bought through Oli at Bognor motors, who I must say has been excellent all the way through, good communication and a very stress free experience. And the main bit, a discount. 3 cheers for Oli.
Ps Oli where my bottle opener, couldnÃƒâ€šÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t open my beers last night.

Awesome motor dude and i love the rear valance. I want this done on mine as the rear does have a little too much red going on.

Im also interested in how much you paid, the process, etc.

Post by: Simonet on 26 March 2007, 11:42: I have to agree the rear looks fantastic, and makes Silver a great choice (Maybe I should paint mine silver!!! THAT IS A JOKE BY THE WAY PHIL! :grin: )

I'm sure many will follow your example BMX

did it myself, but its an absolute pain to mask up, just needed scotching up well with a grey scotchbrightand then a can of acrylic satin black from autopaint Ã‚£4 for the spray and scotchbright . it did take 2 hours to mask up :cry:
