I’ll double check in the morning. I’ll be taking her to the office, as I managed to leave both keys to the daily in the door pocket of the T5 the dealer took as part ex on the GT.

Also crawling through the manual, this is my favourite bit so far… Item 25, pocket-change compartment… how much are they expecting me to be carrying in pocket change!!

The idea is that all the rattling from your pocket change will mask the rattling from other places.

Anyhoo, gorgeous car, well done and welcome!

Isn't that what the exhaust is for?

The mandatory x-pipe is the icing on the rattle cake, the Larini back-boxes the cherry.

In fairness to my old GTS, the only rattling I ever had was after a non-attentive person had failed to fix the heat-shields back on very well (as well as some other things) after replacing the clutch. It was overall a very well screwed-together thing. The Vantage has been far more of a rattler.

Hello and welcome from Evesham.

Lovely car.

I highly recommend 1/8 turn of the steering wheel and wide open throttle.
