Great news, Dougie! A fine choice. I look forward to hearing you first impressions and seeing some pictures.
Awesome awesome awesome
Had it dry all the way home
Now its tucked up in the garage with cover on
The noise and drive is mega, most perfect all round car Ive ever owned and ive had a few different stuff
Will post up some pics tomorow.
I can still hear the noise on Sport mode and its been a hour since I switched it of haha

Good news, Dougie. I'm not at all surprised - these cars are epic.
Which colour combo did you go for?
Which colour combo did you go for?
I was initially looking for a 2010/2011 white and Carbon MC shift
But when I discovered the newer Sport Spec it was a must.
Then after some searching and emailing a couple of people on here for info which was much appreciated.
James at Graypaul Nottingham came up with my ideal spec, a car that was on route from factory already.
White MC Autoshift, I liked the MC shift but with it being used as a "sensible car for me " aswell as a Euro trip wagon I found the MC Autoshift suited our needs more. As with the Sport Auto you now get the sport suspension and Sport button Exhaust valve so it was a must, with the improved slow speed driving characteristics of the auto.
And with a Carbon Fibre fetish this one was a must.
2014 MC Autoshift
White with Black Neptune wheels
Outside Carbon Pack 1- Carbon mirrors, carbon handles, carbon rear spoiler and front panel
Aerodynamic Carbon Pack - Carbon side skirts, carbon rear diffuser, Carbon Exhaust surrounds
Inside Carbon Pack 1 - Carbon interior trims
Inside Carbon Pack 2 - Gearshifter, carbon door tops
Carbon Steering wheel
Carbon MC Instrument Cluster
Carbon Door sill plates
Bose
Ipod Connection
MC Pedals
Black headlamps
TPMS
Black Calipers
Seat Comfort Pack
White trident logo on headrest
White stitching on black seats
James Humberstone at Graypaul Nottingham has been fantastic to deal with really understood us that my wife and I are true petrolheads and this was a big purchase for us and not his usual customer.
Incorprated into the deal was also Car Cover and Factory tours when we are down in Italy on our road trip later in the year.

Wonderful! The interior carbon packs are awesome. Pictures, Dougie, please! 
Hope you enjoy the 4.7 Auto as much as I do. I started off looking used as well so understand your process.
Bear in mind that that the GTS Auto car like mine also has the sports suspension and sports exhaust. All that has changed is that the valves now stay open below 3000 revs.
Love to see some pics.

Congratulations. That spec is identical to my car. Even down to the white stitching and tridents on the seat leather! With the black accents and carbon fibre you will turn heads everywhere, I can guarantee it!!
