Here She Is, FINALLY!
I am so excited, we picked up my new baby yesterday! Finally! The handover went smoothly, except for one minor hiccup - but the dealer took care of it very well.
I've attached a picture I took as soon as we got there, and later I'll put up more pictures. We've been too busy driving it to stop and take pictures
It's a CR MCC Chilli, with all kinds of bells and whistles. No performance upgrades,but I did get the reversing camera, which was the only one the dealer has ever fitted. The satnav screen is really awesome, clear even in the bright sunlight.
I haven't stopped smiling yet!

edit: Just added some pictures to my gallery. It's a little overcast here today, so they're not the best. Let me know what you think!

I'm jealous about the reversing camera! If I order one from the UK, does anyone know if the dealer will install for me?
