Picking up my new C'eed SW 1.6 CRDi ls on Monday, cant wait!!
Excellent forum, I have been keeping an eye on the forum for a couple of months now and its provided a wealth of info, it has helped making up my mind on the purchase.
you have a big advantage now, there seems to be a couple of weak spots you should pay attention to: bubbles on dashboard, rear shock noises, steering wheel noises, auto AC acting weird...
most of us don't have any issues, but every now and then there is a lemon, ask Robert23 (I think he got played by the dealer who knew the car isn't 100%)
and yeah, kickass color like on mine

I know the feeling, I was also browsing the forum for the 2 months it took me to get mine delivered. Have had it for a bit over two weeks now and I am very happy with it.
I have actually not seen any of the problems discussed on the forum yet, but I am of course keeping a close eye on it. However I found a problem that I haven't heard of here:
The electronic window on the drivers side is not going up automatically anymore, I have to hold the button down. It was working when I got it and it is working on the other three windows so I will take it in and see what the dealer says.
But welcome and congratulations on your new car, I am not sure what color tempest grey is, is it a lighter grey? Mine is piston grey.

Tempest is the darker grey, so far no problems, the clutch is a joy as my old v40 needed both feet to press!!.
Electric speed sensitive steering takes a while to get use to, engine is really responsive, much quicker than the 1.8 petrol Volvo. Only issue is the cream coloured lower door panels/foot wells - don't know how I'm going to keep these clean.
just in the process of getting all the add ons, already got a boot liner, floor mats, dog boot liner, still to get a tow bar.
