She's Arrived

So picked her up on Saturday and couldn't be more happy Really pleased with the car colour, wheels and black grill combo. Handover was excellent and the day was only spoilt by some miscreant thinking it was funny to spray silly string down the passenger door while we were out having a Christmas lunch with the family

Anyway not going to let a few idiots spoil it.

Lovely looking car - congrats.

I've always been a fan of white with black wheels etc.

Enjoy!

Thanks. I have come from a 10 year old diesel Focus that had done 102,000 miles. So as you can imagine it feels very refined The step up is so huge it's taking some getting used to but loving every minute. Favourite bit so far is the sports auto - what an amazing box of tricks. Also glad the alloys I picked don't come with the run flats so road noise is minimal. Last day at work till New Year so once that's out of the way the fun can begin

Happy Christmas

Okay then, the official name for White with Black Grills n Wheels is Storm Trooper.

I assume then that All Black is Darth Vader

As in 'wow, you really have went all Darth Vader on your car'

My M4 was christened 'Bat Mobile' by the office.

Any AW car with Black bits on is definitely 'Storm Trooper'. I like Vader thought too.

What we need is an all black Darth Vader flanked by Storm Troopers in a V formation - yes I am thinking about this far too much

Cheers Joe. Service from Coopers has been fantastic, couldn't fault them at all. Just looking forward to having some time off work to enjoy it.

Have a great Christmas and New Year

Excellent idea

Not sure where that leaves me with my Black over Opal White though... - Reverse Storm Trooper?
