Bin cruise control, get rear wiper, get red seat belts. And Most definately get sports exhaust retro fitted by your dealer once it's available....No if's or buts, this is a must!

Changed to an S with -20 suspension / LSD option and standard 19" wheels.

Going just for Sat Nav, phone, sports seats and metallic black as options. oh and sports exhaust....

Fantastic looking car but the alloys shown would not be my first choice.

That front on shot makes it look like a Beatle big time! (I'd still have one though)

Bin rear wiper. Ugly. I've not got and never wish I had it!

Edit: Except you may need it for resale.

I saw the black one too on the M25 yesterday. Are they testing new models or finalising the C2 and C2S?
