Its campovola grey with White side stripes & mirrors, climate, 17" 10 spoke wheels, split rear seat black & red cloth interior - so sweet! Thinking about monza exhaust in a year or so :)

red cloth?!

Collected car today - got over the nervousness of driving it within a couple of minutes but then really had to watch speed on motorway, loads of police cars around & was doing 85 thinking it was around 60!! Planning on having some fun on somerset back roads over the weekend  ;D

enjoy getting it, I love mine, only 5 days with it now.

will it be a boy or girl, and will you name it, various topics on this  :thumb:

I love it! can't wait to rack up a few miles, traded my 2003 Saxo VTR against it which I had from new also (good for 1st 5 years then became unreliable & bits breaking/falling off)

I've always thought of it as a boy - a 1.2 pop seems to be a girl but girls don't growl :P Haven't thought of a name, not sure I will but if I do I'll post it  :thumb:

Ditto!

Make sure you keep your diary clear for the AutoItalia event at Gaydon at the end of August... I am sure lots of us will be there.

I'll probably be at Prescott for the VSCC event in early August, and that is right on your doorstep, Barthi.
