Couple of new acquisitions:

Metal non-OEM sill trims for all 4 doors, plus a metal boot lip trim. If the weather lets up, car will be getting a good clean this weekend so I can fit them.

Am still waiting for mine   personal plates   wooo woooo

Will look forward to seeing them on the car.

You and me both. Car will need some substantial cleaning beforehand as it's absolutely covered in grime. It also spent several hours parked in Battersea Park last night (nothing dodgy, I was at an awards do) so is smothered in tree leavings, twigs & bits of leaves as well. Once cleaned up I also want to get some mudflaps on there.

Not sure about mudflaps. I had them put on our previous car (mk 5 Golf) and it actually made the bodywork more dirty. I was quite amazed.. I would not get them again.

They don't look big enough on my Sport more like cosmetic thing.

Most mud flaps today are very small, mostly to avoid grounding out on speed bumps etc. Was the same on my C4, front ones were practically invisible. Looking at the muck that is sprayed up the sides of my Rapid right now, anything will hopefully be better than nothing.

Chris you're clearly liking the car again  . A few weeks ago it sounded like you would get rid.

It was a rocky start, not helped by the dealership selling me the car with a multitude of faults that really should have been picked up before I ever went near it. Once everything gets finally sorted out (there's still some issues relating to the water retention in the doors that I'm not satisfied with) all should be well. That dealership certainly won't get my repeat business - I've already booked my first service somewhere else.

 

However, that aside - yes, I'm really enjoying the car and the more I add my little tweaks to it (sat nav, boot organiser etc), the more happy I'm getting with it.

Good news. I hope all gets sorted [emoji106]
