Very nice Thumbs Up

Thought you looked a bit young to be owning one of these (first pic) but then spotted a different face in the next one down Laughing

I would recommend sill protectors, I have seen a few without where the paint is destroyed, especially at the drivers door.

A few days by the seaside.

Fantastic paint finish. Difficult to see what's glass and what's highly polished paint!

I echo Dave's words regarding the sill protectors. Definitely something on my list.

What towbar did you go for?
I am considering which to purchase and your's doesn't look like an OE one.

I went for the Witter one. The LR one has had issue and the main dealer offer Witter as an alternative, I got mine on eBay from a Towbar dealer for £180 delivered.

I've just ordered the Lockwood sill protectors off eBay. They are far cheaper than the LR ones, plus they seem to protect the most vulnerable part of the sills unlike the originals.

I should have them well before the actual car arrives - I've still got a good month to wait.
