Congratulations that is a very classy colour and I think you will find it a very much admired car.
Wishing you many happy miles together.

It is a metallic bronze/chocolate. It screams "1970s"... My Dad had a Triumph 2.5PI in the same colour. I could live with it, especially if the deal was good enough. But Caroline took one look and said "no way, never!"
She is of course right. Whatever possesed them to pick that for a demonstrator? Or was it a cancelled customer order? Who knows!
Peter Congratulations! At last you're wearing the pants in your household.

Congratulations Peter on the immanent arrival of George. I guess all that canvasing convinced you that you only had one choice, and also provided you with the material needed to convince  . I caught a quick glimpse of the car on my flying visit, and it will look smart in the garage (A pity its not my garage)  Just think of all the extra driving time you will have without the maintenance to do.

Peter Peter Peter you have done it, you have converted to Aero world, No No No we are not going to accept because it as a Trad Shape Body you have kept within your Trad religion, i know for a fact you are bouncing off every wall in the house waiting to get your paws on her for good. As i said " and think" brought the conversation alive when i said i suggested the colur is great You will be a new bourne man when you get your butt in that Well done... Brilliant choice of motor IMO PS put up a good photo when it arrives, it certainly will earn a place on my SCREEN SAVER for a period Best Dean

Congrats!
They do an Audi R8 Spyder in a similar colour combo, that looks fantastic and so does yours! And that inteior, looks like toffee piped in cream! very inviting. It will be much admired wherever you go.
Out of interest why the 3 week wait and what is being done to in in that time?

Congrats!
Out of interest why the 3 week wait and what is being done to in in that time? Things to do: 1. Re-furbish or replace front Max wheels, both have scuff marks on the rims. 2. Make new side screens in brown, to match the hood. It has black ones.... 3. Make a tonneau, included in the build sheet but cannot be found. Make and fit bonnet strap, again included in the build sheet but cannot be found. 4. Annual service, it should have been done at 12,000 miles. 5. Check and if needed re-gas the Aircon. 6. Replace the protective film on the running boards, it has been badly scuffed. 7. Fit rear rack, included in the build sheet but never fitted. 8. Check for and touch up any stone chips. The Williams will check everything has been done to their satisfaction.... Target date is 8th November. Could be a week later. Peter

It has a dent/soft spongy area where you put your hand to assist getting out. If it was me I would request a new rear wing as it's lost its integral strength and will always be susceptible to future damaged.
