I will just wash it, clay it and put collinite 476 on it. Poorboys wheel sealant on wheels.

Any more thoughts on gap insurance?

Off topic: iaind - Are you the bloke I met at the RR meet in 2012(?). You had a diesel modded Mondeo mk3?

Not me no

Id just do some googling for gap insurance, it's so cheap, there's a handful of companies doing it. I used helpucover before but they don't do gap any more

Gap insurance isn't 'important', its a product that might make sense but it's far from important. The fact it's so cheap demonstrates how rare it is that anyone actually claims on it.

I don't know much about costs but looks like a nice whip! Get some pictures up, and I hope yours isnt yellow

Red not yellow! Yellow was £700 cheaper but just doesn't suit it imo.
I will get some better pictures when I pick it up

. I only have a few blurry phone snaps currently.

I would suggest looking at ALA for gap insurance. Mine was £220 for 4 years return to invoice cover on a £38k car.

Hey all.
I will post a few photos up in the next day or so.
All good so far.

Only query is that as the doors are enormous does anyone recommend any.decent door edge protectors? I am very careful but I totally underestimated how big they are in the work carpark!
