Really happy with the Volcano Grey/Partial Red interior! Also love the GT Steering wheel :D
Welcome to the club! When you've put a few miles on it I'll be very interested in any "crowding" from the Sports Chrono control and smaller GT steering wheel, I've spec'd the GT wheel and thinking of adding the SC ....
Do it. The mode control switch makes it so easy and quick to flip in and out of Sport mode. There really isn’t any problem with the size and position of the dial even with the smaller wheel.

+1 - I found the sports chrono really handy on my test drive, the dial on the steering is great and very handy especially when just pressing the little 20 secs boost button . :D

Thanks all for the kind words, really enjoying it so far, loving the smooth ride compared to my BMW on 21” lol

Really happy with my choice of grey / red. Also really pleased with the GT Wheel, doesn’t obscure the dials at all. Though no where near as thick as the wheel that was on the X3.

One thing I have noticed is that one washer jet is pointing a little to high and is hitting the underside on the bonnet, can this be easily and safely adjusted with a small pin to point it down a little? Or is it an dealer visit?

Oh and I changed the sides on my key (cos I’m sad)

No no, it was an eBay special for something like £11. Not an exact match to Volcano but close enough for me!
