Post: RE: Why wait for 62 reg

Personally I would take it straight away. I'd be surprised if the dealer would hold it for that long, I would have thought they would want their money.

Ahh, yes I know what you mean, I like the rear parts but not too sure about his tread plates, although, but £40 cheaper than Duckworths for 4 parts seems not too bad a price. I was going to ask him if...

According to auto headlight bulbs "Note: this product (philips Diamond Vision) is NOT legal for road use in the EU." that was for the 5000k, not sure if the 4300k is the same.

I like the idea of them, but as you say almost £140 extra for a bit of light, as far as I'm aware they are only lit when the doors are open. Think I'll pass.

Duckworths have them on their website at £231 (rrp £260). Not sure if there's price difference for 5dr and coupe.

Not sure about the Prestige and Dynamic models but the Pure coupe has electric seats which is a £900 option on the 5dr which kind of justifies the dearer price. Regards Stevie
