Cars ordered for September. Ali wanted a Nara bronze but that is being discontinued for MY15. So she went for the Aintree Green as did I, Hers is having the Almond/Arrabica interior and I'm going with the black interior. Check the for sale and wanted section if anyone is looking for a 6 month old DS4 HSE in either Loire blue?ivory interior or Corris Grey/ Almond interior  Could get yourselves a bargain!

Cheers Steve, if yours has the Incontrol apps fitted make sure you take a USB phone cable with you so they can show you how they work as one doesn't come with the car and it took a hell of a lot of searching at the dealership to find one  Then be prepared to be underwhelmed  Cheers Ian

Collected my one today. So far just 14 miles on the clock! I really like the green with the ebony interior combo. Happy with the choice I will post some pics soon. Just need to change the interior
lights to LEDs first!

Looking forward to some pics of the new beast, and would be great if you could post up a how to for changing the interior lights to LEDs - high on my to do list, as the only ones the factory did were in the door handles so it seems!! I calculated around 20 bulbs to do?

I usually change the front and middle rows and the boot space main light. so 7 LEDs in total. It is literally just a case of swapping out the bulbs and replacing with the LED ones. Some people will tell you that you need to have special LEDs and you will be charged an arm and a leg for them. I get mine from ebay, they come in a packet of 10 and are about 8 quid. They come in from China so take about a week to ten days but worth the wait If I can do it mate, anyone can!  My17 Volvo XC90 Inscription

Oh and +1 for Dan - Don't bother with the In Control Apps. A more accurate description would include the word Cr Ap and some nifty word play  You really cannot imagine how dire they are. Think Sinclair ZX81 and you wouldn't be too far off
