GR86 Electric Blue #2

[PVGR]

Looky what Santa delivered, a day before Christmas, 316 days after I ordered it

Having just done 61 miles and counting on b roads in the pissing rain for now I'll keep it simple and say it's EPIC.

It is just so so good. Loving my colour choice as well

After all this time... I'm really glad you managed to get it the right side of Xmas! The weather today was a deserved bonus for your patience I think!

As it should be sir!

Made for driving not rubbing and wiping, so to speak!

Thanks! Us Bracknell collections should go for a drive some time!

 

[PVGR]

Credit to Bracknell my handover was excellent, car arrived one day, delivered 24hrs later.

Great staff who were apologetic about the whole process.

Car was nice and clean (some transport goop still to get off), car was explained well in useful non patronising way.

 

[PVGR]

Passed the 500 mile Mark today!

All b roads all awesome.

Respecting break in procedure.

 

[PVGR]

Totally acceptable for the weekly shop.

Somewhat nervous parking it near other cars and a little tricky getting in and out with the big doors but that's all normal for a coupé.

Vertical Cargo Net installed - not sure how useful yet but if you carry small items will stop them flying around the boot.

Did you get that cargo net with your car, or had to pay extra for it?

 

[PVGR]

Paid £30 something not unreasonable

Interested to see your thoughts on this after a few weeks. I’m always hearing the stuff in the boot clonking about. This could be just the thing.

Where did you buy from?
Currently have some stay hold things but the velcro tears up the boot carpet a bit. Think this net might be better

Need to be done and it's almost straight

Not totally sure about the 5 digit plate - thoughts?

It gives me bucktooth vibes still looks great.

100% need one of those cargo nets, thanks for sharing the part number!

Personally, I prefer the full length plate but I know a lot of people don't.

 

[GR86GRY]

@Moonballs 5 digit actually looks pretty good on a full length plate What about a square one over 2 lines?

 

[PVGR]

Yeah it does.

I just felt like a number plate ruined the front having seen US cars without one so my logic was for it to be legal and small as possible.

Will look at it some more before deciding, maybe it just looks weird because I'm used to full size. Does allow you to see more of that nice grill
