Thanks guys!!!

Pics will be up soon

Can somebody let me know what i need to ask for the cable that allows you to control/charge your ipod too? I got a USB-to-USB cable and standard 2.5mm aux cable, and although you can connect the IPOD with the later, its doesnt provide full functionality. The name of the cable/part no will be great....

Just got back from cruising around showing some friends, its incredible, cant wait to take some decent pics of the monster

Cheers Chris...... yep the roads are really wet/oily in solihull, so the wheels are keen to spin!! So i have been controlling the "urge"!! Awesome car though, just beginning to sink in.

The handover was great, very well organised and not too much detail.

SAT NAV has got the latest 08 DVD and post code entry too.

Guess i should read the manual sometime, have you?

Ive got mine out twice, then put it straight back in the folder. Tell a lie, i did look up the symbols that come up on the nav, i didnt realise it could tell all it could about the current situations up ahead, i always giggle when the upside down car comes up lol (well on its side lol next to the other right way up one)
