Feels great just seeing it parked on the drive!
The only thing I am still a little nervous about is fuel consumption, I know I'm probably being stupid to worry,(and our US cousins will be laughing) It only has just over 200 miles on the clock, the EVIC is showing 29.7 average since last fill, and I've been driving very carefully. I will need to brim it again when I've done a few more miles. I suppose I probably need to give it a good long steady run of a couple of hundred miles to get a real impression of what its going to do.
Just need to decide now what to do about bluetooth without damaging the dashboard etc. Quite like the idea of the Parrot you mentioned BB.
Cant wait to see your pics BB, and yours Geordie when yours finally arrives.
Cheers

Hi Just
ref the MPG. If your EVIC is talking American then your Beastie is pitching in with abot 36 mpg which is bloody fantastic.
But, if your EVIC is talking English (or in your case Scottish), yo're getting nearly 30 mpg out of a brand new, not run in 3 lt, 2 ton car that hasn't been on a long run out - My first car a Mk2 Escort struggled to get 30 mpg and it was nowhere even remotely close as being as good a car (in fact leagues of difference) from Arnie.
be patient Brother Just and you shalt be rewarded.
