MARTY IS ALIVE!

It's taken me driving over to the dealership and asking the woman (very fit young woman, lol) who has taken over from my dealer (as he is on holiday) and asking when I can pick it up, but I can do so on FRIDAY 17th JULY!

I walked up the drive and saw this shiney Sea Gray Titanium X and looked up at the windscreen only to see SOLD - ROWLEY wrote on it I have took some photo's but they are all on facebook so yea lol.

I'll put some proper photo's up when I get hold of the car!

Just set my 7 day insurance up to start next friday, can't wait now!

P.s. Does the PDI install the alloy pedals and scuff plates as they wern't on today??

[Bashful]

Thank flippin' goodness! Looking good so far

Looks lush JAR - can't wait for mine to turn up now.

And whast with the having to wait a week before you can take delivery??

PDI - Pre-Delivery Inspection.

This is the time taken by Ford to fit any accessories (Alloy Pedals / Scuff plates) and vallet the car, as well as checking everyhting is in order!

The car was delivered to the dealer on 4th July (Last sat) despite the dealer telling me he didn't know where it was.

Oh well, bring on Friday! lol.

Well at least the wait is nearly over . . . . No sleep for you for a week then with all the excitment of getting Marty

[paulworthing]

Just one question - is it the angle that you took the picture of the front of the car, or the way the sun is catching it, but the front lower grill seems to stick out and I have no noticed this on the Zetec S's that I have seen?

I think that's the splitter - I remember one Zetec S owner complaining that theirs seemed to be missing. Mind you, Marty is a Titanium with full dress-up kit, isn't he? Maybe that makes a difference to the precise configuration...

Yea it does stick out slightly, but its aminor thing and I think its the way the sun catches it in the photos. I'm goign back tomorrow to take more piccys lol so Ill take some of that for you lol.

[paulworthing]

hehee - you going to be down there everyday taking pics then - see if you can get some nice side on ones so we can compare them to the other new Titanium in Sea Grey thats on here now

[ZeeJex]

Its about time lol, we ordered on the same month but yours definitely looks like it was worth the extra wait!

Regarding the scuff plates, my dealer personally put them on for me just to avoid another queue.

[JAR897]

Lol, I don't think my dealer will be doing that, she (yes SHE) will get her fingernails dirty. Don't blame her either, she is fit. lol.

[poohbear]

FINALLY!

[DanGull]

Sweet - shame the front numberplate has to go on really isn't it?

[greenymk7]

for the love of god don't let them clean it!!

[JAR897]

lol yea the numberplate doesn't do much justice.. but as its a private plate it should still look nice.

Why shouldn't they clean it? lol.
