Mine arrived today as well. Me and my plastered leg have spent some time longingly looking out of the window, wondering whether it will be before or after Easter that I can drive it. First passenger seat trip this evening as my wife takes me one mile for a pre-Christmas meal and then one mile home again. :shrug:

PS Would love to post a piccie, but the 15 post rule prevents me. Silly rule, that one?

After 8 miles in the first 10 days of ownership (don't ask), at last a 200+ mile Christmas trip. Stuck faithfully to 2000 revs max, but loved it. Can't wait for the trip home on Sunday. What a wonderful car - 184 FR.

Drove my Cupra (on standard tyres) in the ice snow a couple of days ago...took it verrrrry easy! A tiny squeeze too much on the loud pedal and the dash lights up like a Christmas tree...but not as bad as I was expecting. Me and my car got home in one piece, so must have done something right! Was alot of fun, although my conversation skills were lacking as I was concentrating pretty hard!
