Nice car and nice alloys... Blcak grills really set the front off IMO!

Cheers for all the comments people!

I am enjoying it yeah. Getting about 36 mpg at the moment. It sure does shift too!

Few little niggles, main one being I have noticed a few fine scratches on the boot. It looks like a cat or something has been climbing on it. I used some black T-cut and they have faded considerably but still faint. Any ideas? Also how do you stop them!

The time to get things sorted is before you drive off.
You don't want to get home feeling all warm and fuzzy only to discover something is not right.

+1 if the agreed stuff isnt done don't part with your cash.. make sure the scratches is done properly.. if not tell them you are not picling up the car until its properly done after sale service is shit! Any promises would likely to be ignored

Got any pics?

Probably standard swirl marks. Black cars show them up worst of all..

Best bet is a polish, then couple coats of glaze (Poorboys Black hole) and a good carnuba wax applied. After that keep on top of adding a layer of glaze and wax every couple months and you won't be able to see the swirls..

When your warranty runs out, a remap from More-BHP.com will have it a nose ahead of a stock 330d.

For goodness sake don't wait till the warranties run out!! 3 years is long time.

Nice looking car mate with great wheels. I understand your concerns about damage etc but it is there to enjoy and if anything happens remember it can be fixed. How good is the stereo, a worthwhile upgrade?

Well the car isn't brand new so I have profited from the original owners choice of extras including the upgrade. I haven't heard the business or professional systems but I can say the HK is very very clear especially at high end. I enjoy my music pumping, especially in the summer, so glad it comes with.
