Hahahahahahahahaha very sweet!!
Get some good cleaning products this weekend...no chamois leathers or Halfords wax.....
Get a good lambswool washing mitt, a drying towel, some polish and a good wax. Sme rapid detailer for mid washes to keep it looking clean. Maybe feel the paint with your hand and see if it feels smooth like glass, if not, clay the car (a kind of putty which you rub over the car with a rapid detailer solution to take off all the crap that is stuck onto the paint) nothing beats the feeling of a beautifully taken care of car!!

Hi all,
Another Newbie from York here, just took delivery of ours yesterday!
Absolutely ecstatic with it apart from a temperamental CD changer and electric mirrors that the dealer is going to take a look at. Looking at getting an AUX put in anyway.
Looking forward to getting involved in the Forum, looks like there's a wealth of info!!

London... Kent... Hmmm. You should see the state of mine - you'd be down here in a shot.
Just a quick update. I've had my Z for three days now and, despite the flashing roof light problem, I've never been happier! I still can't believe how nice it drives, and how FAST it is! I've never ownded anything this nice 
I picked it up on Saturday morning and shortly thereafter drove it to the East coast! I drove it to work for the first time this morning and had a smile on my face both ways. The first thing I did after firing that roaring engine up after work was drop the top and crank on some tunes. lol. My William Orbit CD has never sounded better 
Just wanted to share my excitement yet again! I nipped to Halfords the day I bought it and got some Autoglym wash - can't wait to give her / him a bath this weekend. Hmmmmmm, I've normally referred to my cars as she's, but this black metallic Z with black leather, etc just feels more like a 'him'. lol.

Hahahahahahahahaha, sorry my first thought is orange, crazy I know. It's yellow, yes it is.....sorry 
What wheels are you getting Carol? 326 M Sports? I have wax coated my wheels which makes them really easy to clean. And if you have a few hundred to spare (maybe £250) I would get a detailer to the garage before they get a chance to prep it. You'd be surprised how many brand new cars leave with swirls on it just by the dealer prep.....
