Well guys and gals, after much reading on this and other forums yesterday I went and test drove and purchased a not yet built, '07 Mk2 BF 6spd Auto XR6T Ute in 'Ego'

I test drove a man, auto T's and a GTP auto. The auto xr6t was just amazing, I was really impressed (clearly). the salesman did not have an xr8 to drive so we took out a GTP, and let me just say... VERY dissapointed. The T was like a jet and the GTP was like a Jumbo, it could do the same, but just didnt feel as fun... sounded GREAT but didnt give me the WOW, and I was/am a v8 fan boy.

I take del in 3 weeks!!!! its gonna be a slow few weeks . What I need advice on, is I want to get some personalised plates and I cant work out what colour combo to go with on the ego... any ideas? Nothing seems to look right.

I hope to do a few things to my new toy once I get used to the way this thing goes!?!!! I am in bris so hope to get out and about asap and meet some other like minded peeps. I hear the performance shop up at Redcliffe is a top place to get work done.

thanks in advance

Felix

Nice purchase mate!!

And the colour, I love the EGO colour.

Don't tie yourself down to one tuner when you are still shopping around, I hear Paul at Elite does great work too, a mate of mine gets all his work done there and has been very impressed indeed...

Idea's on plates...

How about this... playing on the big ego theme, meaning that you are very proud of your new car and stuff... carrying on the 'ego' theme.

It does look a bit like whore ya, but that might be a good thing as well...

Only water mate...

Are you scared again Tabitha? Just remember it's not your fault

Jack

Heh thanks guys,

Seems like 99% of people on here are good types.

Thanks for plate combos, I am putting one on hold on monday, black with white text seems like a goer.

So the 'ego' colour joke is "another faded silhouette" whats "undercoat"?

I thinking about going to other dealers and having test drives just to make the 3 weeks go faster

Nah buddy - I'm the only decent one on here. The rest are f*ckwits

I just mentioned the faded bit to get a bite from scribr, but it was wasted

Undercoat is mercury silver Often referred to as HgAg (its metallic symbol thingo) by those that own it who want to feel cool, and referred to as Hgay by those that don't.

I wasn't having a shot at all... I gave those plates as an idea to you...

What are you actually after with regards to plates for your new whip? Do you want something interesting? Do you want something that has a go? Are you after something that says something about you?

What do you do for a job? What is your name? Give me some time I'll come up with something...

Believe me, I'm bloody good with plates, there is a few from here who sport plates on their car because of me...
