540C Built and ready

[MadMacMcMad]

I ordered a 540C last July. I went and had a look at it delivered to Ascot yesterday.
It is Storm Grey with orange calipers and orange and black leather interior.
I am a little biased, but it is the most stunning vehicle I have ever seen. More than anything else on offer in the show room. IMHO far better looking than the 650 and not as angry as a 675.
No decent pics yet, but I should be collecting mid next week, so can post after.
I believe it is the first 540C in Berkshire... Or that might be sales spiel.

Congratulations - love the PH username as well. It sure sounds like a Mad Mc!

Perfect timing for summer. Do let us know how you get on.

Congratulations to all those with a 540 C on order, I think these are fabulous and in my mind the pick of the range.

Can someone please keep me in mind for one in two or three years time please?

Standard everything just with parking sensors to keep the weight and price down please.

BISPAL and TISPKJ told me they were on Grindr as well though doesn't sound like you'll get much decent driving time as most of their meets are in car parks at dusk.....

Nothing wrong with a discreet meeting :-)

I'm leaning towards a basic spec 540C as well, the 30HP difference between the 570S is not going to be noticed for road use and the two cars are indistinguishable apart from two fins missing on the rear diffuser.

If you don't mind me asking how did you spec up the 540, and which options would you consider essential? My 'poverty pack' spec is hovering around the £137k mark and that includes alcantara interior.

Only options I went for...
Nose lift, parking sensors, special paint (Storm grey). These are the must haves. Tot 131K
However, I also have full leather black interior with orange highlights on seats/dash and tied in with orange calipers.
The latter is not essential, but makes a beautiful car, stunning.

I picked this up on Friday. What a car!
