I thought, "its only money" and now, its only someone else's money!
I'm the proud owner of an Onxy Black 07 spec Vantage bounce
Pics to follow, if it ever stops raining....

1st (of many no doubt) questions, I was told the the car had the Premium Audio option fitted. Can anyone tell me how I can tell if this is the case by looking at it?

Ta.

Congrats

When you turn on the stereo it should come up with "premium audio" or words to that effect. At least my does and car is 6 months old.
Err,, I knew that !!!! ... hehe

Yes it does say Premium Audio. I thought it did have this option, the reason I wasn't sure was that underneath the shelf behind the seats, there is a cubby hole, on the base of which says "space for Premium Audio subwoofer". Presumably this should be full of subwoofer? (The space is behind the passenger seat).

It is stunning in black. Nice one Tonto. It looks super shiny... is that just a good valet or has it had a paint treatment?
Good spot, Its had the Autoglym Lifeshine treatment, which I'm quite impressed with. You can almost just hose the car down and forget the washing bit. Most of the muck just falls off.

I think its the space for the air that the subwoofer will compress. I think the sticker means "space for subwoofer, i.e. don't put stuff in this space or it will screw up the sound".
