Sounds like you are enjoying the beast properly.  You can't beat getting out in a new car and just driving.

Look forward to the pics as and when

Awesome to hear how you're enjoying it!! Very happy to wait to see photos of the car in its glory all shined up - could be in for quite a wait with this weather we're getting ....  :))

Thanks for your comments guys .....  :)

And to Snipez .... What will a remap do for it in terms of BHP etc ..... will it make a significant difference ? Have you had yours done ?

Just going to have my tea now, and then some pics later  ;)

Cheers ....
