    Almost a week in

    Hey Aly had the D5 almost a week now how’s it been? Have you got any tips or tricks for me ?
    I had a call on Monday to say mine may arrive this week and would I like to pop in when it arrives to see it and to decide if I want the wheels painted black. I was like ...eh doh course I do . Laughing Laughing Laughing
    Let me know how your getting on with yours. I’ve a few things I’ve to remember to ask at pick up time.
    1. Remind them of my Land Rover experience freebie.
    2. Seems to be a few posts re SIM cards and do I need one.
    3.Service pack ( anyone got advice on this ie worth it or not)
    4.Spare wheel anti theft device does MY 2020 have it as standard.
    Any other things I need to remember and ask ? Please limit the silly replies ie Errrmm is it petrol or diesel
    Cool

    Hi Gaz, you must be getting excited now it's getting nearer to being here, I know I was when ours was Mr. Green

    We are still getting used to ours to be fair, still only relatively short trips, but every one a pleasure so far Thumbs Up

    The first tip I would give you is learn how to open the boot before you visit Ikea as we were all in stiches trying to open the thing on Sunday in Ikea's car park Whistle Mr. Green Mr. Green

    I have booked it in for a stage 1 polish and ceramic coating of paintwork, wheels and all painted trim so that would possibly be my first piece of advice......dont let the dealer wash it when it arrives Mr. Green Mr. Green

    I also will need to chase up my dealer regards the experience freebie as there was no mention of this when collecting etc but it was mentioned in the "handover video" Whistle

    I'm going to investigate the sim card thing a little more as I do think that there is one installed in the car but I appear to be having problems signing in to my account in the car so it may need a bit of tweeking, I have only given it about 5 minutes of time so far so I may have missed something......very possible indeed Mr. Green

    I haven't opted for a service pack with the car as I have two dealers about the same distance from me so not sure which one to choose for servicing at the moment, hopefully won't need to give it too much thought for the next year anyway...fingers crossed Laughing

    I will pop my head underneath to have a look at the spare wheel to see what it looks like Mr. Green

    So far, we love ours and are very happy with our decision, love the interactive display as in my opinion it makes the car feel that little bit more special, could be as we have never had anything like it before but I think its a good option to have Thumbs Up

    Hopefully yours arrives soon and you get to enjoy it, looking forward to seeing pictures of it when it does.

    Cheers Thumbs Up

    Swirls

    Yeah good shout re not letting the dealership wash the car that’s a given.My last car had a front end Expel PPF wrap and the rest of the car ceramic coated cost me 2k. I’d be scared to imagine what wrapping the D5 front end would cost.😝.I use Spotless Detailing in Perth he is excellent but very busy getting booked in is the problem.Now thinking why did I go for BLACK Laughing Laughing Laughing I can’t get booked in yet as I haven’t got a confirmed date of arrival.
    I’ll just need to keep it clean and as swirl free as possible until I can get an appointment.
