I never sent him all the receipts and dyno reports that it had. If he still wants them I am happy to send them as I no longer have any of his details. PM me if you want to on his behalf/I pick the car up on Thursday hopefully in the morning!! I'm excited!! lolJack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 06/01/09 01:19 PM Author Share Posted 06/01/09 01:19 PM (edited) To also answer the question do I intend to modify this one... yes I do. Maybe not as far as my old car but it will certainly come in for a 'little' attention... as much as I would like to leave it alone I just know I won't be able to. So why fight it. LOL Just accept it and move on! Jack Edited 06/01/09 01:29 PM by HYPOG6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 08/01/09 06:10 AM Author Share Posted 08/01/09 06:10 AM I picked up my new car this morning and I've been out all day driving around and seeing friends.First impression is WOW! My last car was a BA Fairmont Ghia and this is essentially the same thing (even down to the colour being black on black...) but in a newer updated model, plus/minus the turbo of course. The difference between the two cars is just astounding. The ZF is just brilliant, I know it's been said on here for ever and a day since they were released but I will add my voice that the chorus. Amazing.The interior is beautiful. The leather in the car in particular seems to be a different grade, it's softer and more supple, nicer to sit in. The ICC and colour screen are excellent, I love how it tells you what song is playing on the station you are listening to (Bar 101.9 Fox FM for some reason...). Moving the trip computer settings and displays to the centre of the cluster is a great move too including a digital speedo readout to go along with the analogue dial and also the single km/h incremental changes you can make to the cruise control. If you are thinking of getting one, you should... it's as simple as that.Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronburgundy I love gooold member Donating Members 1,222 Member For: 15y 8m 22d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne (west) Posted 08/01/09 09:20 AM Share Posted 08/01/09 09:20 AM I've noticed 105.1 Triple M seems to just say "YOU" which makes me laugh for some reason. I love the cruise control too, was impressed when the salesman showed it to me. Sounds insignificant but it's great compared to my old VX Berlina where it went up in increments of either 1.5 or 1.6 (can't remember which, 1.6 probably makes more sense though?). I like the digital speedo too - except it makes it 'harder' to speed. When you're on the analogue dial and you're in say a 70 zone, you can happily sit on 75 or just between 75 and 80. I find that, mentally speaking, if I'm looking at the digital speedo... it just feels weird to sit on even 72 or 73!Then of course there's the temptation to just sink the right boot and hope there are no cops around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
