What a great looking car and in the best colour (IMHO). Look forward to hearing how it sounds / goes as well.

Re: Officially arrived having collected a car today..
Welcome Ian
I'm pretty sure the base car E was viper green. You can check by looking at the paint code tag on the drivers A pillar and posting the stamped numbers here which will confirm one way or the other. I am still in regular contact with the guy who commissioned the build. I nearly bought your car from him but bought one of his others instead. Quite similar, different colour
It is a fabulous car. Enjoy the ride. Look forward to seeing it again in the flesh someday.
Regards
Mike

Hello Ian,
A snap of your new car leaving the castle grounds late Sunday afternoon. It sounded superb... Didn't look none too shabby either!

Re: Officially arrived having collected a car today..
Cheers. I think I stopped to fire up the sat nav - I wasn't posing honest.
One thing that contributes to the noise it that it has a rather skinny air filter system rather than a standard one which I'm guessing gives me zero chance of getting on a track and around town is a just a tad painful. It's a simple bit of foam on top of the stacks so I'm minded to try to a standard one as whilst at high revs it's fine at 2-3k it resonates horribly IMHO or maybe the exhaust is the problem - need to experiment a bit.
To be honest for the perfect sound track the modified "RSR" silencers on the 993RS are very hard to beat but that's heresy perhaps.
