The pics look great, I test drove a R Design in white and was so tempted to get a white active but in the end we have ordered one in Caper Green. Delivery in a weeks time! I cant wait.

it is nice in inscription? white. One question, could the additional chrome bits be part of the inscription?

What do you get BTW with inscription apart from a shinier metal paint?

Reggie,

Mine is a standard active with Inscription paint only, nothing else in it part of the Inscrption range, as far as I am aware anyway.

Thanks. I like yours. I have ordered the same model early November and can still change the colour. I was hesitating between silver and oyster... and now I am wondering about inscription white... I need to decide by next week... decision... decision

I like the inscription white. We just ordered ours in Oyster Grey Pearl; we weren't brave enough to go with the white although we both liked it.

I hope you are delighted with your new car! I get mine 1st March 2010!

Happy Christmas!
