It's Here

UPDATE
I got it yesterday and it's brilliant and so smooth. Only done 40 miles so far but I'm well chuffed. Tyres are Wranglers not Zeros for what that's worth.
Dealer told me not to use Sport for 500 miles to let the engine bed in a little. One thing I noticed was that you can't see what gear is selected unless you use the paddles - or maybe I need to read the flippin manual.
Need to sort out some bootliner stuff and one of uncle Ray's wheel protectors.
Will try and post some pictures soon.

Sounds nice Thumbs Up With the earlier D4 you can't see what gear you are in unless you select command shift.

Uncle Ray's protectors should be a standard fitting Whistle and yes they are for the full size spare Thumbs Up

Pictures at last (what a struggle)
At the dealer

Left it in access height !

Yes, still in access height





Does anyone know if it causes any harm long term to leave it in access height ? It certainly makes it easier to get into.

Hope not as that is what I do with mine as I have a couple of metal plates in my spine and access level just makes it so much easier to get in and out of Thumbs Up
