Get it done by WP, once you have driven it with the upgrades you will not have enough blood in left your brain to think straight as all the blood will be between your legs.........761bhp at fly is bang on, still makes me dribble just a little.

I think I asked this before, but what did you have done?

Sarge 4x4 said:

Stage 2 kit
Cold air induction
Supercharger drive pulley
Overdriven balancer pulley
Hi – flow injectors
160 degree thermostat
ECU Recalibration.

Addition to above:
Cam & double valve springs

Nice! Think I better start saving.

Why isn't it December yet!? I want it now!!!

[B5ELF]

Well I have seen a number plate on the dvla site that I want, do I just give the dealer the info and get them to buy it?

Careful, whippersnapper. My daughters are both older than you, but they haven't started breeding yet!

Just to keep this thread updated, ship is due into port on 27th (Thursday) then just got to wait for up to 3 weeks(!) for it to clear customs .

Also, latest figures from the awesome Dougie on numbers and colours ordered so far:

3 fantale
11 white
2 green
3 perf blue
5 black
6 red
1 met red

I am guessing one of the other 2 Blue is the stock replacement for the one I am getting from Bellingers, so am looking forward to having a very rare colour

Not long now then! Hope customs get it through quicker so you can make the goodwood SS!

Yup, would be nice to have the newest car there :lol:

It won't turn up in time, I heard the ship bringing it has lost one of it's engines and is still going round and round in ever decreasing circles to finally disappear up it's own funnel. Hahaa.

Sarge 4x4 said:

Blue is such a sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow colour as well, have you not been told "White" is the quickest.

At least it is faster than Red: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4drNFXd6dw

And faar too many white GTS' have been sold

Sarge 4x4 said:

Mine will be there unless its snowing otherwise will bring the race Defender for a laugh.

You are most welcome to kick the tyres anytime but don't mention Yellow calipers.

If it was me I think I would hang on till Jan by the way.

But I know what it's like, new toy and that.

Will definitely be coming over for a chat and nosy at the engine

Already sold more than twice as many GenF's as they did E3's then.

Yeah, the salesman at Bellingers said they have had a more diverse selection of people buying the Gen-f compared to previous models, from yoofs my age all the way through to the oldies who purchased the last models new, which would explain more sold as a wider market reach

SHE IS IN THE COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[R8VXF]

Thanks to Dougie working his magic, it has cleared customs today and I hope to pick it up Friday! Need to badger Bellingers to make sure it is ready!

[R8VXF]

DougieMc said:

Wooooowww Horsey
It needs to get to the dealer first before they can start to do their bit.
Transportation to dealer is booked for this week.

They said they may only need a day to get it ready when I spoke to them on Saturday... I am away for a long weekend from friday so hoped to pick it up on the way if not, can wait till next weekend.

Thanks so much once again though Dougie

I had a good look aroung Ringrams car saturday and a very nice car seats are very comfy.

Yeah, was really impressed with the whole interior tbh, apart from the retarded positioning of the boost and oil gauges. Gonna take a while to get used to the indicator being on the right hand stalk though. Wiped the windscreen a few times on my test drives
