Definitely Nuxi, I feel your joy !!!

Let us know how it all goes and post up pics etc.

Also let me know about the privacy tint, ie. if it's actual tint or if it's OEM coloured glass - hopefully it's tint and it can be successfully removed from the rear quarter windows so that you can then apply a matching tint to all the side windows

Will definately do mate! Fingers crossed it's normal tint lol. Still don't know why they decided to go ahead with the "privacy tint".

I believe there may be some substance to this. Another forum member Glyn who is stationed is South Africa also mentioned price restructuring come the new year. It seems the demand for these models is MUCH higher than expected.

My car landed on the 21'st (BAD timing!), anyone know how long it takes for a dealer to normally get compliance plates?

I have been quoted 10 days but just wondering if that's realistic or a generally good guideline?
