Wow! I love your Valencia Orange. Looks spectacular. I never came across this colour when I was searching for my 2011 model. It must be rare?

Not rare these days and there are quite a few on the forum but not to everyone's taste. I'm sure someone will know when it first came available

Lovely motor, paddles are simple, push the gear stick over to the left and change up and down when you want with the paddles, you can use them in full auto too, rather than waiting for the box to kick down you can just use the paddles to get the car into the right gear. :thumbsup:
The gear box is quite clever so you would be hard pushed to do any damage. :thumbsup:

It doesn't look like I can open and close my roof using the remote key. Can this be upgraded? If so any idea how much?

Edit: I can open the roof with the remote, but doesn't seem to close with the remote.
