Enjoy it ! Run it in correctly and do a couple of things - 1. Get it waxed asap and 2. Watch out for the paintwork, it is quite fragile and prone to chipping so either don't drive too close behind the car in front or (as I prefer) always stay ahead of them ![Smile](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Your grin factor is about to go up 1000% and always remember the mantra - slow in, fast out.

straight from the swissol handbook in relation to new cars:
So even if yer being sceptical it cant hurt can it ![Wink](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Even with a new car, it is advisable to seal paint shortly after service. Why? Because importers & dealers often use harsh, solvent-based cleaners to remove the manufacturer's protective wax prior to delivery

The "manufacturer's protective wax" is not a wax polish that is taken off, it's the cack the car is covered in when it is delivered

Why get it waxed asap? Dead simple - the reason you wax any car - to protect it from the elements. Get into the habit early and keep the car looking good. Nothing bullsh1t about that is there? Unless of course you want to drive around in a dull looking motor which is something a scooby is not.
