Another new F31 335D (with pictures...)

Dixiebrook · 05-12-2014, 04:24 PM

Collected new car on Sunday.

MG, 403M 19" Alloys, Sun protection glass, Pro Nav, Adaptive Suspension.

Write up to follow - few photos attached.

Have never loved a car so much. Have been cleaning and sealing the wheels in the dark. Wife thinks I have lost it...

AtlantaDude · 05-12-2014, 04:30 PM

Now that's a looker!!!

Love it man. She looks great!

gtsussex · 05-12-2014, 04:31 PM

Looks very nice in MG (but then I would say that!)

....,,,,..,,.. · 05-12-2014, 04:34 PM

Very nice, I like how MG sort of changes shades.

Nice to see a clean behind as well

Spoonhead · 05-12-2014, 04:37 PM

Looks great.

Looks nice in the sun.

Proftinkerpot · 05-12-2014, 04:40 PM

Lovely car mate. Health to drive. What spec did you go for?

Alkidrew · 05-12-2014, 04:42 PM

Looks great in MG, any reason for not having xenons? Lot of money for a 335d but just the basic headlights...

PrinceBarin · 05-12-2014, 04:43 PM

Looks gorgeous, congrats!

Looking forward to the review.

Oh, and there's nothing wrong with sealing your wheels or cleaning your car through till nightfall! At least that what I tell my missus.

Has anyone sneaked out of the house and had a sit in their new car.

Sat there, big grin, smelling that new car smell with your hands on steering wheel.

Had to work to a budget (not pcp) and draw the line somewhere! Considered higher speced 330 but fell for the extra performance of the 335. Not disappointed do far!

Not yet, but now you've mentioned it. Sounds like it could be a good idea.

Especially if it avoids watching Man City winning the league.

Very nice!

Yep but not for that reason. I sat in mine last night for 10 mins trying to work out what was wrong with the dashboard design (from @teaston post), still none the wiser

Luckily no one saw me

OP congrats on the car!! Lovely colour MG. Enjoy all that torque

You are lucky if you don't know what it is! I don't notice it most of the time but when i do it drives me a bit crazy as i can't un notice it for a while!

bpc101 · 05-12-2014, 05:25 PM

Great looking car... but then I would also say that having it's twin delivered next month (hopefully).

Well done for getting the pics up as well

dannywooly77 · 05-13-2014, 02:35 AM

Sweet colour buddy, that would have been my next choice had i not fancied a black car!

DazC · 05-13-2014, 02:41 AM

Not on the new leather surely....

Lovely looking motor - can't wait to get my MG Beemer, cannot believe how much the lead time drags
