| ....and it's very nice indeed. No pictures as yet but it looks much the same as any other silver octy II. I think I'll need to sit down for a while with the manual to find all the gadgets and cubbyholes on it but so far I'm impressed. I got 50mpg on the way to work which was as good as I could have hoped for and it's a good bit quicker than it's predecessor. Oh , and the stereo's not bad at all either.

| 160Bhp, really? I thought it felt quicker than 140. Glad you got your car at last Mr Z, they are well worth the wait. Jon.
