My MY2011 Bali Blue D4 has landed
So, yesterday evening, I took delivery of a MY2011 D4 GS in Bali Blue. No options other than the paint, and the side pipes that I can see, but the option list for D4's is complicated to fathom completely.
'Scuse the photo quality, its winter and therefore dark up here in Scotland. The blue is really nice and not as mental as I've seen in the showroom under the bright neons.
So far, so good. Bring on the snow!!

Cheers, I managed to find a trader that had one in stock, and even got a reasonable price for it too, which was good considering the weather is leading prices somewhat. Thankfully I'm owner 2 so he took the initial hit and the 'showroom tax'Dr Rick
nice car 8) its the best colour by far it really gleams in summer and turns heads
thats why i picked that colour bali blue disco 4 with rear dvd's, privacy glass, pre heat system, heated steering wheel, full size spare, piano black trim, ipod cable, 20 inch wheels and i love it loads more than my TDV8 RRS, KTM 250 EXC 2 Stroke for the real off road stuff

Not seen many D4's with the side tubes (not seen many D3's with them either, unless I count every time I look at wifey's car ).
Will look out for you....

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm well versed in keeping vehicles clean without resorting to OCD as i used to own a restored MGB in Tahiti Blue which is very similar. I have plenty of Autoglym product line in the garage!!Dr Rick
