taking delivery of the 197

[VIICarCare]

this thursday (hopefully) just wondering what i need to look for? if anything? it will be new from the factory. thanks guys

just a give it a good inspection inside and out...look down the panels for transprtation dings etc etc...check wheels again for marks...you get the gist other than that, it should be spot on...happy driving!!

hello again,thanks again matie

It should be 100% spotless. If there is any marks on it AT ALL reject it till it's been sorted

as said look out for smart repairs done prior to delivery to you as a large amount of cars get damaged on route to the dealers

Make sure there's a Jack (even though there probably won't be) Not that I got one when I picked my R27 up.

Oh my R27 has no jack - I assumed the previous owner had nicked it! Should I have tyre foam or anything? If so where would that be?

Only 197s that come with a jack standard are non-cup packed 197s.
You should have foam - mine's under the passenger Recaro.
I bet the two tins of foam got lifted before you bought the car.

I haven't even looked TBH mate! I'll have a squizz under the passenger seat later, got some mats to pop in anyway.
