Rogue_Shadow Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I finally picked up Wesley on Saturday & Ive barely left the driver seat since :D Completely love this car! I gave it a Polish and light wax on Sunday to give it abit more protection and how the paintwork SHINES! Getting plenty of odd looks driving around in a 10 plate though Here are a few really rubbish photos, it was a awesome day and the sunlight ruined my photo's Plenty more to come im sure :) Thats me :D, I'll keep the dealership branding for awhile, I strangely quite like it The ONLY mod I will be considering will be changing the bulbs, would look loads better with White lights B) It's a joy to clean, but I'm not sure the interior will be as fun. two different types of dash plastic, white boarders to the window, grey seats. How does everyone else clean the interior? The last thing I want to do is spray on a product and be left with a huge Blackened puddle on my interior :( Thanks for all your help FOC, you've helped me with Engine, colour and mats (turns out the dealer threw some in for me) Cant wait to have a few miles under my belt, then I can push the engine abit harder. I've been a good boy and shift before 30,00rpm and haven't exceeded 35,000 The engine REALLY wants to pull though, so keep the revs low is obedience I never knew I had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strutter Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Looking well, and nice of you to name your car after me! Lol bit of a weird dealership decal under the badge, not sure I'd be happy with that. I've told my dealership I expect absolutly nothing on the cars or windows!

Gazjs Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Very nice :D I would probably take the dealership sticker off before it bonds to the paint anymore (What a weird place to put it) Love the car though :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael P Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Nice! Do your brake disks already have surface rust on them ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Shadow Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 The brake disks go pale yellow after being parked up for the night. Take it for a run down the road and its all gone :) Same with my Dad's BMW but his is a more lighter tone of yellow Was really worried when I first noticed it...my dad laughed and so the lecture begun lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewL Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Lovely looking car mate! I'm glad that you like it. :D As for the brake discs, do you live anywhere near the sea? The salt in the air makes the discs oxidise much faster. Nothing to worry about though really, as you said it's skimmed off when you use them. EDIT: Just saw that you live in Cornwall so more than likely yes then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue_Shadow Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 Neil? Lol, k, order a tit with kit and wheels, and I'm literlly waiting for the call to pick it up any day now! That's brilliant mate, I'll keep my eyes on the forum this week for your new car Nice! What extras did you get for it? B) Ok as I mention, the previous dealer wasted my time. But I asked him to look for a SECOND HAND ZS with street pack in grey, that was it. anything else way a bonus imo. The guy never called me and wasted my time, I always chased him and using my phone call register. in 2 months, I had called him 32 times, he had called me 7 times. FU VOSPERS & So... I Went to dealer 2 on the off chance, within 2 days I had my car sorted I paid such a small amount more and got... City & street pack, bluetooth and USB,spare wheel, he gave me free mats (dealship branded) and Free alloys pedal and rear seat head restraints (Im sure they are extra) I didn't even ask for those. And it was a 10 plate, brand new :D I love that dealer for that reason :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aph1101 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Lovely car you've got there and what a fine choice of colour might I add :P I think sea gey looks great with the dress up kit :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesilverfox Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Take photos with the sun behind you - you can't really fail that way :) Looks nice otherwise. I may be slightly biased with the colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmclaney Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Welcome to the '10 plate club :D Here are your photos with some colour enhancement and correction: (Some were a little too hard to fix) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Shadow Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 Aww thanks for making the corrections to the pho tos! That's Brilliant thanks lmclaney ! I do plan to take some more photo's soon, Id just rather be driving than lining it up for a photo But more will follow when I have the time :D Thanks for all your comments, Its a amazing car and I'm extremely lucky to have it. But is it sad to feel abit upset that my old (1st) card is off to be scrapped. If I had the money I swear Id keep them both :D Only metal I spose, onwards and upwards. Because Im keeping the revs low, Im not strangely addicted to getting the MPG good. Using the trip computer, I think one view is Real-time MPG (fuel consumption) and the one after is Average MPG I've managed to get my average to 39 MPG Love having a trip computer...hell I love having a rev counter for a change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmclaney Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Aww thanks for making the corrections to the photos! That's Brilliant thanks lmclaney ! No problem, it's part of what I do for a living and only takes me a few minutes :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
