Well where do you start....

Only had it 6 weeks and have added an xpower backbox and transplanted my pioneer avh5700dvd into it but once I get the leak sorted (changed the stat housing, temp sender unit and all pipes/orings today, all sorted thanks to Lates....


Parking sensors (having read the great how to on here, 23 quid and an hour to do!)

START BUTTON....dunno why just gotta have one..

Wheels refurbed (was gonna be hypersilver but now I've seen smokeys white ones.....hmmmm)

Site Stickers !!!!!

Might debadge the back...?

Might try and find a trim shop and have the door cards retrimmed with blue alcantara to match the seats..

Like the tf mirror mod...

Like the TF steering wheel...


Finances/time dependant on all the aforementioned

I don't think anyone can get hold of the TF steering wheels in blue anymore iirc......

Silver is a maybe......hmmm check on ebay or with Ralph at EMS Ltd. You will need an adapter to fit the TF steering wheel onto the ZS spline......read elsewhere on the forum about that using the search facility.

Blues ones as rare as the proverbial rocking horse...I had a range rover walnut/leather wheel recoloured last year by a local refinishers and it looked as good as new...was thinking about getting a lighter one (silver/yellow) and getting the leather stripped back and refinished..gonna give em a call to see if they can do it...will post back if they can cos i know alot of people would love a blue one !!

My biggest plan is simply to keep it !

I change cars too often. Have pledged that if I hold on to this until I'm 40, just under 3 years, I'll get something extra special. Trouble is that if I do the following, I'll have something extra special

Exterior.
My handles are getting done on the warranty.
Union Jack for the roof still in the box, but is going to go on at some point this week as I'm off.
Got a few scratches and chips so might look at sorting them.
My bumper at the back, looks dull compared to the body. I reckon it's had a dink but not been repaired very well. Might look at a once over paint job .... costly though.

Interior.
Have had my eyes open for Alcantara leather interior to come up on a fleecebay...but no joy. I know EMS does them, but when they'll cost me £750 ish, I might look at a full leather re-trim. Maybe in grey ....

Engine.
My car is fast as feck anyway .... so I'm fine just now.
