Engine running!

Dealer advises that the car is running and they have delivered it to the shop that is going to do the Opti-coat (ceramic coating for the paint.)

Another step closer. Please tell us that someone has driven it now - i.e. not only was the engine running, but it moved under its own power?

That is brilliant news - it is now a car as opposed to a very expensive ornament.
