Sounds superb mate.

I think the CW Edition 3 doors have a timeless look about them. I think I'd still pick a well specc'ed one over a MK6 truth be told...
Wish you luck and ensure you enjoy  :driver:  :happy2:

^^^ ain't that the truth. Chap on my road has one in Black  :love:, keep reminding him that when/if he ever sells it....cough cough  :party: :party:, would even sell my Eddy for that one.

Anywho, back on topic. Bet you can't wait, kid at Christmas springs to mind!! The only colour I would even consider other than red, sounds like a beauty, well done. Pics when you get home please.
