She's Finally Here

[Defratos]

So finally got delivery of the beast after a month and a half from shipping her from the Mid East. 

Car has been Registered, MOT'd, insured etc... 

Drove the car for 2 weeks and forced myself to drive it for everything I needed just to see if having a Left Hand drive car would be a problem in London, and to be honest it's not that much different at all from driving a RHD vehicle so that was a nice surprise. 

I've left the UK for a few weeks now so won't be driving until I'm back and then it'll be going into storage for whenever I come to the UK. 

Enjoy the pics:

I got hold of some good quality Reflective Number plate stickers and decided to take off the front number plate holder and put a sticker on instead, personally I believe it looks better:

Damn right, Grey is the fastest colour lol , I like the Grey and Blue IS-Fs, sometimes the white looks good as well.

[JonP]

Welcome and hope you continue to enjoy driving your IS-F over here. Grey is, undoubtedly, the best colour for an IS-F.

There are many reasons, good taste, however, precludes denigration of those less fortunate.....

 

 

[Arqum]

[Arqum]

im in SE London.

[Defratos]

Cool I'm NW London so yea local but I guess an hour or two from each other 

[Arqum]

nah not even an hour on a good day!! Will PM you

[Dar]

I've only seen one other ISF in the SE of London in two years of ownership - a black one with a private plate. Seen 7 other ISFs in Wales though - all at once! The black ones seem to have the loudest exhaust @Rusty Crobar!!

[ollie isf]

Excellent car! Another Londoner here so I'll keep my eyes peeled. South West for me.

I've seen a fair few other ISFs in London. @Arqum, what colour is yours? Wonder if I've spotted you. I've seen a black one around Elephant & C a couple of times.

[Arqum]

Mine is black.

Nice to see more ISFs in London, colour is Nebula Grey 

[Peter P18]

Congrats!

Glad to see the car has arrived and settled in to it's new home ok.

Arqum isn't far from me either, as he has had some bits done on his car by me over the years.

I'm not far from London (under 30 miles) down the A2.

Maybe we can organise another Bluewater meet? If not, how about a pub lunch and chat etc?

Couple of nice boozer's near me that do food etc....

Would be good to get something in the diary as I'm done with work on mine till early October when the calipers are being re-painted.

Car looks great though my friend.

Cheers for now.

But the Silver ones go like stink ( @Big Rat)

Blue ones are nippy but satnav crap

[Flytvr]

@Defratos have you got any shots of the interior (out of interest).

[Defratos]

@Flytvr here are pics when I first got the car, steering wheel is now in cf and has a flat bottom and the interior trim will be changed to CF soon. 

 

 

[Bluethunder]

Wow certainly livens up the interior! Can't be many ISF's with a red interior...

[MNMJ]

I really like the colour contrast in the rear, highlighting that there are just two seats rather than a bench...though you have turned the contrast up to 11 though

[Big Rat]

@Defratos Well felllas other countries did have the Red interior as an option from 2012.

But New Zealand had a limited edition plaque car and here it is 😊
