At Last!
« on: November 08, 2010, 06:16:32 PM »
After being let down by TWO second-hand sellers I have bitten the bullet and paid for a brand new 500 today.
Grey, 5 petal, red leather and a few other toys.

Delivery for 3 weeks!

SOOOO excited.

Going to look at getting it wrapped in the stuff to protect against the stone chips etc. Can anyone recommend anywhere and give me an idea of what to expect.

What else should I consider looking at getting?

Leicester watch out!

Welcome and contracts on the correct visual spec  ;)

Paintshield have been used by a few members,  they give a good feedback but its not cheap. BMC if your not intending to SS, TMC box either way add suspension dependant on car use.

Have been offered the paint Shield at a fairly good discount by the garage, but think im more interested in the wrap.

Do the air filters make a difference? They aren't expensive either are they? Can you link to a good one please?

think that would be a sensible first step!
