Bought myself a new toy

Hi and welcome. :thumbsup:

Your car looks great, and I'm another fan of those wheels! And well done for posting photos before you've actually collected your car - that's the sort of enthusiasm we like on here. :lol:

Well you have M-Sport seats and steering wheel, but they could be chosen as options. To be absolutely sure you need to put the VIN into a decoding site. This one just needs the last 7 characters of the VIN:- https://www.mdecoder.com/

Not a bad car for £4200 and like mentioned further down the post, just in time for summer.

Is it possible to fit a solid roof to these for the winter? Or does it knackere the motor with the convertible roof being in the down position for too long.
Thanks again to you all
Hard tops come up for sale from time to time..won't damage the motor..pretty much the opposite of it's still located in the roof drain area
if its got tits or tyres..its trouble :D

Thanks alot I'll check out that site when I collect the car. Hoping for tomorrow or Sunday but failing that it will be monday. Needs to have MOT done by the garage and they are packed out with work.
I just noticed the M sport steering wheel badge when I looked at the photos again.

Perfect I'll keep an eye out for one popping up in my colour.
It's apparently had the convertible roof motor modification done to stop it from being sat in water from the drain lines if they block up.

Or so the garage told me
