Thanks, AM I too thought you had already had the heating fitted. The reason is in this photo (for me, anyway):  What is that white box down there in the passenger footwell? It looked like some control box of some sort to me? I really am envious of you and that thing. Even the damn tonneau looks nice and easy to put on, and the steering wheel with that stripe on it has me rethinking what steering wheel I want. Oh, also, it looks like you have a red cover for the steering wheel in this picture:  Surely not?

I agree with everyone - a stunning M3W along with a stunning portfolio ! Must have been a really busy weekend for you - so thanks also from me for taking the time to allow us to share the excitement.
Regards,

Oh, also, it looks like you have a red cover for the steering wheel in this picture: Surely not? No, no heated seats yet. they should be fitted on Thursday. The white box on the lower dash is the Starcom intercom system control box, the jack plugs are at the end of the central console. You can just also faintly make out the cigarette lighter socket that I had fitted for SatNav, phone charging, etc. You have quite an eye for detail AQM, it was indeed red as it had a red nylon cover to keep the wheel clean prior to delivery. Obviously this came off as part of the vehicle hand-over. Thanks John for your kind comments, I did get to drive it quite a bit as ALL the family wanted a ride in it today. It's now got over 200 miles on the clock...

Thanks, Aero. Intercom! I hadn't thought of that. In my mind it's a solo kind of thing. I guess I should begin to consider my better half, lol. One more question if you don't mind: Is that wheel 350mm? I looked at wheels at Sabelt UK and the ones that looked like yours were 350mm as far as I could see. 200 miles is quite a bit of driving on day 1. Well done, he he

It's a Morgan fitted extra and it made sense to have it fitted ab initio imho! I'll measure the wheel and let you know the size, but not tonight as I'm off to bed now...

That is so sexy...love the radiator..is it really left with the brass finish or is it the light?
The Superdry looks very chi chi...only just realised its(Superdry) a Cheltenham posse with no 'real' attachment to Japan... can see how Stylemiester Matt H over a scrumpy came up with the association/groove..very sharp.
He is a very unlumpen chap.

Aeroman,
Congratulations and thanks for all the pictures, especially the ones of all the M3Ws in the factory, great to see some other colour combos
Your two cars look amazing together!
I only have one question - how did the interior stand up to driving in the rain?
