    well, picked up the car from sydney just got back at 5pm today.very pleased,it had a couple more options than were in the ad.self parking and lane change assist.bonus also was because 2 of the tyres were a bit low on tread i got him to knock another $1000 off the price.as i'm replacing rims and tyres anyway this was excellent. will post pics once it's cleaned up.
    cheers

    I think it's probably safe to say that at any event, the vehicle is the star and the driver is merely an accessory, some pretty good, others well...

    well really enjoying the 3cc so far.keep looking for reasons to go for a drive.get new wheels and tyres fitted thursday,personalised plates friday. i'll then get some pics up. spent 5hrs last friday cleaning the outside. clayed it,medium polish,fine polish and then waxed.i'll give it a month then rewax it and it should be up to a satisfactory level of clean. the silver leaf is just stunning out in the sun now.paint surface is like glass.it was amazing how much fallout the clay pulled out of the paint considering it was polished a few days before i bought it.
    cheers
