Hi all,

Well finally our brand new RRS AB has arrived and fully Gtechniq Crystal Serum Black treated.

After the initial handover mid week it was straight down to my local detailer for the fully Gtechniq Crystal Serum Black protection treatment inside and out. It was many restless nights and counting the days, minutes and hours down since my order in May. The extra couple of days it was at the detailers was even harder to wait for, but well worth the wait.

I must give a massive to my detailers Ribble Valley Auto Tech and Justin who is such a nice guy and professional in every way. The way he has detailed our new RRS is fantastic and it looks stunning ( I will post more details in the detailing thread for others to view).

My wife has driven it so far and absolutely loves it and it looks stunning on the road. I have built up loads of browny points with my wife now for sorting this out along with her private reg all for her birthday.... The Loire Blue along with the black roof and stealth pack with full dark ebony interior sets it apart.

Very pleased with it so far and will upload more photos once the sun's comes out....

Thanks to of the forum members on here who have given me advice along the way over the past few months. Having a forum and members with personal and vast experience is a great help.

That looks gorgeous what a colour

Thanks I was very impressed with the colour and the way it stood out even more once treated.

Wow congratulations that does look good. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

Very Nice, I had Loire Blue HSE for 2 weeks as my loan car while mine is being fixed and in the sun it looked great.

Dirt did shows up lot more then mine (Firezine Red) but with your Crystal Serum it should stay clean then a untreated car. Mine has EXO treatment and that also works great but Crystal Serum should be even better.

Very nice - it really looks sporty, I thought it was a supercharged V8 (there's one I see locally that looks similar). I bet it was worth the wait and uncertainty you've been through.

Shouldn't you have asked for Crystal Serum Blue, though? ....and it's a shame about that stone chip on the bonnet front edge!

Thanks for the comments guys. It has the Gtechniq EXO treatment on as well as that's what the detailers call "Crystal Serum Black protection" think because it comes in a black bottle and packaging

Now have to learn how to hand wash a car properly with all the products I now own, or just avoid those dirty puddles....

Thanks Donny much appreciated for all your help and I can't believe you noticed that stone chip as well. Nothing a pretend SVR sticker won't resolve

'SVR' is what I meant, I had a mental blank and couldn't think of the correct name! At least to the uninitiated (me!) it looks very much like the SVR I see (briefly!! ) round here.

No, I don't like it......
