Picking up my new SVR on Thursday morning and can’t wait, big upgrade from my previous A45 AMG.

:D

Looking forward to the experience.

I have seen a few people have issue with batteries, are there any other things I should keep an eye out for (apart from cops and speed cameras ;) )

Main thing you'll have to do is train your grin muscles - they will get a major workout! ;)

I picked mine up earlier this year. It was a really memorable day so enjoy the time waiting for it as it’ll soon come and go!
I previously had an F Type 400 Sport.
The SVR is a big step up, power wise.
The ceramic brakes are great too - they just need a wipe over every now and again!
I’ve looked around for a replacement and the only thing I’m looking at is a McLaren 570s spider. Other than that (imho) there’s nothing that comes near it for the money.
Enjoy! You’ve just bought a fantastic car!

Great colour... looks like my silver.

Is flux grey a new (SVO) colour?

good question, it is an SVO colour, not sure when they introduced it.
