Only for the first year - after that it's £140 is it not!! Also my dealer tells me the car will come with an "on the road price" having the first year road fund paid for. Do we believe it.

If it had been released without all the blurb, I'd of gone straight out and bought one and kicked myself about it later. I think i'll wait for a couple of years and get a second hand, out of warranty model, That if it's had any problems will have already come to light and been sorted.
Then i also will not feel to bad about taking a plasma cutter to the wheel wells to get a set of 33s or 35s in there.:laugh: :laugh:

Shame innit!!

The more I read about it, the more I'm desperate to get one!

I've read elsewhere that due to demand in Japan there is already a 6 month wait on new orders.

Best video I've found giving a thorough look at the interior/exterior:
