Picking my new VRS up on Saturday, has anyone else got one yet ?
Black with Jumbo + 18's getting Permagarded on Monday to keep it looking good.
Will let you know my 1st impressions on Saturday Night..

Can't wait.

Get pictures up when you get it. I am thinking about a similar spec and colour too.

Nice one mate

Looks like you might be the first.

Are you sure your gona have time to post a review cos if I were you I would prob be driving it solid for the first 24hrs

gazzer04 · 12-01-2006, 23:44

Yes it will be one of the 1st

Permagard is a coating that is put on all outside of car and glass, it helps to stop any scratching when washing and should only need hosing down with water.
Evo Mag had it done on their 550 Ferrari and rated it very highly.
They also do the same on the inside a bit like Scotchgard I think.
£140 outside £80 inside £50 glass. +vat
I ordered the car from Dealer stock in November.
1 day to go.........

Nice one -- make sure we get some photo's as soon as your able,it's a great feeling picking up a new car

Well got it on Saturday and all I can say is it has exceeded my expectations!!!!!!!!!
Drives beautifully very solid on the road, seats are great although still trying to find the best driving position ( the pedals are a bit close relative to dash).
the torque of the engine is very good with overtaking in 4th 5th from 50 is impressive ( still having to be carefull about revs).
The exterior is very aggressive from the front and neat from the back side view not outstanding but as expected.
The 18's look superb , stereo sounds great, exhaust quiet but can still be herd, engine very quiet.
Having the Permagard applied at present will post up some Pics when it's finished,can anyone tell me how to post them on the site ?
MPG about 26 at present using BP Ultimate.
