So happy to finally get my car, it felt a long wait since Feb. I know some folks have longer waits, hang on in there, it's worth it!Given it its first 100 miles driving back from dealership. Things I likedelectric handbrake takes no time to adjust to. It just works. Turns off when you pull away, applies when you're parked. With the hill start assist, you just don't miss those great big levers. I'll soon think they are rather quaint.I found the 1.6 pretty quiet, no grumbles from me (or the car!). Didn't really notice any appreciable wind noise eitherI was worried about reports of the sound system, which I didn't try on my test drive. I thought it was just fine, but I can see how an extra subwoofer might bring a little more excitement. Don't think I'll bother fitting one though.Going through M6 roadworks, I loved watching it read the speed restriction signs. No more sudden thoughts of "wait, am I in a 50 limit here?"Love the iKey - stroll up, open door, start car without ever taking the key out of my pocketThe seat is awesome. Hands down the most comfortable in its class!I popped the bonnet and it's like the engine bay of space shuttle under there. (I don't know much about engines, so I'm easily impressed.)So far, not one single gripe. Very happy customer!I bought my car on a good PCP deal through Nationwide, and it was a super smooth transaction both with them and their dealer. If anyone wants some contact details message me!

@Johnnie - yes, as part of the handover my dealer made sure I was aware of where the key adapter was. These are numbered and you're supposed to keep a secure note of these somewhere. Which I really must do!I've bought a full size alloy from another forum user, haven't got a tyre fitted to it yet, but when I do I'll take some pictures of how it affects boot space.
