Am I the only one going against the flow here? Rolling Eyes
No. I had the choice of both new. But I was lucky, it was November 13, so I could see what the facelift model looked like. I preferred the existing model and was able to get a £4.1/2k discount for their 'old model' showroom car just as the new one arrived. Plus I would have had to wait for a Jan 14 delivery.

Love it, or hate it, de-face lift is now complete
I'm happy with it and looking forward to being able to see even better when reversing on Cornish lanes at night

Been thinking about a plate myself especially as I'll be facelifting, hard to find something that isn't tacky.
SDV6 badges arrived today, thank you very much

Looks much better with the older style lights. Works better with the red paintwork. D4 GS 12MY

Glad they arrived okay!
Good luck finding a plate, I've wasted many hours on the DVLA website trying to find something nobody's thought of before.

Yes, I know. Sorry to disappoint
Final phase of de-facelift has begun, with a visit to the paint shop to drop off some bits at close of business today. Should get it back on Friday and then back together on Friday night
