[marklemac]

I'll take them in the morning :) was too dark by the time I got home.

roof spoiler arrived today too, so need to book it back in to get painted and fitted.

[marklemac]

Here are some pics from this morning.

Tints are being fitted on Monday and the roof spoiler in the next week or so.

Gotta say I am well happy. It's only been just over 2 days and around 150 miles later....

The car is very comfy, eager to pull and sits very well at 70+ on the motorway. Yes going up a hill requires a a bit more thinking to get the speed down but that's not really an issue. Love the steering, it is so easy to turn. Turning circle is excellent too. Brakes are brilliant too. Handling is quite sloppy but then I am used to the Impreza. I would quite like the suspension firming up if possible.Visibility is great, I do like the huge windscreen.

So far the fuel gauge has only gone down 1 blip which is great, lovin' that bit.

So yes, all going well so far :)

I'm not going to be leaving it standard ;)

Already replaced the sidelights with LEDs.

Tints get fitted on Monday afternoon.

Roof spoiler has arrived, just need to get it dropped back to the dealer to get them to spray it and fit it.

Got my dashmount bracket to fit so I can get the iPhone bolted to the dash.

Will probably lower it at some point too.

Want a rev counter.

And I want to sort out the interior lighting too. Needs rear lights and also one in the boot.

Thought I'd give the car a clean today. Didn't take hardly anytime at all compared to the Impreza.

Whilst drying it the towels easily got caught on the rear badging. How flimsy are these attached !!!! Looks like they will come off with no problem at all.

I saw on here that if you remove them it leaves a hole ?

I might have to remove them and then reattach them properly.

Whilst drying the car the towels were really dragging badly over the doors and roof.

Felt it with my hands and the paint is in very poor condition. Not smooth at all.

Out with the clay bar and I did just one small section to check it out and sure enough it looks like this car hasn't had much TLC in the paint dept from the previous owner.

Clayed a section near the roof and it is now as smooth as glass to touch.

Just need to do the rest now :)

[Ecoboy]

any chance of your iPhone bracket pictures?

cheers matey, Like you, coming from a sub 20mpg vehicle to the aygo, the smugness is immense!

[marklemac]

I would do but the dashmount bracket doesn't fit properly (have put up a separate thread) so its not on yet. Have mailed dashmount about it.

[marklemac]

Just picked the car up from having its new rear spoiler fitted.

The car is too dirty to post pics but will get them up soon.
