Picked her up today, wife drove it home and absolutely loved it..
The Mariana Black is very nice when clean and catches the sun. Would say it is more Blue than black close up.

Now the Sun has gone in, it looks like metallic Black,, but earlier, really does have a nice metallic blue to it..
Ignore swirls,, will be getting the DA polisher on it, when the weather improves.

As we will be towing a caravan, was looking for some mud flap options. Really like how the moulded plastic ones integrate the look into the wheel arches, but the ones we saw were not very wide, so couldnt see how effective they would be..
Got some Tuff-Rok ones to try and fitted yesterday. Wont be doing off-roading, so not too worried about them getting caught or ripped off. Looks like they should certainly reduce spray and spatter though.D4 HSE Lux. my 2015 . Mariana Black
Car has cover 86K miles and has had the "belt" done, so that is good.
I'm coming up to this mileage (16MY) which belt needs changing?

If you’re coming up to 86k miles it would be the seven year service belt change. (ie not mileage triggered). When it’s due, search around for prices, it’s about £1250 ish at a good independent. Plenty of discussion on here about this service.Gary

I've found the moulded plastic ones to be quite brittle and break relatively easily. I fitted Tuff-Rok ones and much prefer their flexibility.2014 - D4 2010 HSE Nara Bronze

Was fine, no problem at all.
Why would using snow foam, be any different to a normal rain shower and possible water ingress ?D4 HSE Lux. my 2015 . Mariana Black

It wouldn't. LRs do not need snow foam sprayed over them for them to leak!
