Standard off the shelf.

Good light and the intelligent adaptive (or whatever it's called) is very clever.

Ohhhhh that looks mega!

Mine would have looked like that but with the 19" wheels. If/when I get another M car, it's definately going to be Silverstone II again. Such a tasty looking colour.

Very nice indeed! Shame my budget cannot stretch that far other that'll be the best replacement for my current drive smile

How's the running costs so far? Have you got service pack thrown in with the deal?

Cheers.

Did they redesign the standard headlights post-LCI update (yours look a different design to those on w5pwr's car)?

Three weeks and 2.5K miles in and still don't have any decent pics! the colour combo is simply stunning
The performace on full race mode (with MDM in this weather) is simply out of this world

I think the lights have changed design and at the same time to add full adaptive lights that are intelligent when in full auto.

One of the great benefits of Silverstone Blue is that it hides the dirt, I have not cleaned my car for 4 weeks!

Currently got winter wheels/tyres fitted, makes for much better grip in wet/icy conditions.....

I think those wheels look better than the 20 inch (which I've ordered). They are not as dark.

I've got the same winter set-up and agree, now the tyres have some mileage on them grip is very good even in poor weather.

Still get the traction light on a 100 leptons plus if you want too though wink
