Hi all!

Post by POC » Mon Mar 25, 2013 8:03 am

Hi I'm Paul (POC). Yesterday I picked up my 54 plate black on black 4.8is. Shes a beast with pretty much every option and apart from needing new set of rear boots she (touch wood) has no faults!

Located in Hemel.

Thought I'd say hi!

Paul

No plans, new rear tyres will go on this weekend, other than that the only consideration is a remap!  Think I'd better save my ££ for fuel!!

Options, well I'm still not 100% on what was std fitment on the 4.8.
- sliding boot floor
- front n rear heated seats
- nav/tv/6 disc
- folding mirrors
- bluetooth (dont have the code ergh!)
- 4 corner air susp
- memory drivers seat
- climate etc
- black nappa
- electric steering column
- sun visors in rear doors
- factory tints all round
- all mirrors auto dip
- compass in rear view
- rear controls for climate
- multi function steering wheel
- cruise control
- prob more but my head hurts!!

A few are standard on the 4.8 but I would love the rear blinds. I have the factory privacy but have been searching for rear doorcards with the sun blinds in.
