No. the dealer uses ETIS which gives an indication as to what stage its at ie build, flushing, boat etc. Its apparently in the country just waiting delivery.

Thanks mate. Yup, this and a couple of others though there is nothing more localised like this club so you'll all have to put up with my fake crackles instead!!!

In abid to lay down tad more traction, and just because i fancied a little spend up, went and bought a whiteline anti lift kit, got the beers out this evening and got it on, only slight aggro was removing one of the OEM bushes from the spigot as it was stuck tight,(angle grinder later,job done!) has definetly stopped it bobbing around under braking and hard throttle, also feels like its made the steering a bit more responsive,as for traction....next but i love it.
some random pics of shiney alloy and lovely beer to follow.

so an update on the car.. i noticed a few weeks back that i had a slight oil leak from around the filter housing,which i pressumed must be due to crank case pressure and after some investigation and a compression test on the engine, found out number four cylinder had lobbed a wobbly,probebrly not helped by a **** map and my heavy rite foot!! so i decided theres only one option ,and that was to get it apart and see what had happend, i found that the ring land had broken away and very luckily no damage to the liner, so off to a well established subaru/ford tuners in wrexham ,who slung in a set of k1 rods wiseco pistons arp studs etc all the usual suspects and a new forge rebuild was born!! (built for a good 700bhp this time)still on running in millege and once im done going to get another map and injectors and see what the old girl will do..
couldnt resist a quick hoon around the newforest to stack up some millege...
