You can certainly notice the improvement in the pics. Does it need reapplying regularly?

Hi David, no it does not need to be reapplied. As it is a new car - it has a life time warranty (smart when you think about it -coz seriously - who keeps the same car for their whole life!) because it has been applied from new. If it is over 12mths old it has a 5 or 6 year warranty on it. I just give Daniel - from Ultimate Detail a call and he will come inspect it on a yearly basis and make sure its still looking as good. I didn't get it done at the dealership as they are just way too over the top with the price. This was half the price with the same warranty and a better service from the guy who did the work -hes a car fanatic and loves doing it (I told him I recon hes got OCD - with cars!!) Really happy I had it done - have had it done with 2 other cars -and it makes a difference with the paint work still looking as good years later. :D I will post follow up picks later to confirm how good this protection opticoat is...

Hi yes the car came with front and rear sensors as well as reverse camera. I think its standard with the AWD Sport model. :D. Im still glad I bought the car, just a little bit worried about whats happening in USA with the company and whether its going to have a flow on effect with us.

Yes D3lusion - I was really happy with the price - it did start off a lot higher -but he was happy to work out a good price. Go on their web site and it will give you the certified suppliers / detailers of this product and shop around...Still keep looking out my window - and love how shinny the car is. :P

DRUM ROLL............... The car yard has finally come good with the speakers agreement!!! Yes that's right. I went down to custom fit and picked out speakers, tweeters, splitters, an amp (which will apparently depend on what they find behind the new garman nav system) and a 8inch sub woofa -boxed and set up in the boot. Listened to lots of speakers and settled on a set that was within the price range given. Apparently the system is even better than the fosgate! I take it in this Saturday - only shit thing is they get my Kizzy for a week!! But the dealer is giving me a loan car for the week -so all good. Looking forward to hearing some great sounds coming my way. Very happy with the resolution -and any one else who gets ripped off with this (thanks for your emails) fight it ok?

Nice. That's an excellent outcome and you'll have a very nice sound system. What sort of gear did you end up with?

Hi David - I really couldn't even tell you. It sounded good and I said "yeah".... :D Will let you know on Saturday - when I drop off the car, as I will have to know so that i can update my insurance paperwork. I know the sub woofer they are building a box for to sit in the back is around 800w. Thats about all ......
