Platinum Member Maverick23 Posted December 7, 2015 Platinum Member Share Posted December 7, 2015 The foundation Ordered a 4 door Wrangler Rubicon (JKUR) from Horsham Jeep on 21st July 2015 with the following factory options: 1. Black leather interior (thanks Stewart!) 2. Heated front seats 3. Darkened rear glass Vehicle arrived at Horsham on 25th November 2015, only just over 4 months after ordering. Thanks to Dean at Horsham Jeep for his professional and cheerful assistance; to my fellow JOC members for their freely given advice, encouragement & humour; and especially to Stewart, for not only sorting out the black leather, but also for his personal support on the day of ordering – all greatly appreciated. :great: :great: :great: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Maverick23 Posted December 8, 2015 Author Platinum Member Share Posted December 8, 2015 The Extras aka “some parts” This package arrived at Heathrow on Monday morning … Thanks to Randy Flogaus from Quadratec for sorting out my American order. The consignment arrived safely at Nene Maidenhead this morning - in very similar condition (see pic 3) - phew :icon_geek: Tomorrow I will be visiting Nene to collect one vital piece and take it to Horsham Jeep for their kind attention.

Platinum Member Maverick23 Posted December 10, 2015 Author Platinum Member Share Posted December 10, 2015 Hi Stewart About 1.30 ish ... it was a busy old day for me - set off at 8.50am to Nene first to collect hood and check my Quadratec consignment - then sat on a motorway for a while on the way to Horsham - back home about 4.45pm ... knackered but all tasks completed (I think). Mark in service did say you had been in earlier ... shame I missed you, it would have been good to catch up and nose around your Rubicon :glasses: Here are a few more pictures of ... boxes!! Oh and one of a new bonnet sitting inside MY Rubicon - all safe & sound ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Maverick23 Posted January 5, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 5, 2016 The modifications ~ phase 1 All bodywork changes carried out by Horsham Jeep prior to collection. Namely: 10th Anniversary Rubicon bonnet; colour coded wheel arches; petrol cap cover; and an easter egg :icon_pirat: PS I fitted a full set of slush mats myself ... steady tiger :rofl: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Oddball Posted January 5, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted January 5, 2016 Is the fuel cap metal? The version on the black edition was really nice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Maverick23 Posted January 5, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 5, 2016 Yes Steve .... metal & Mopar part - almost certainly the same as on Black edition - covers exposed fuel cap and smartens up the rear wing (imho :glasses:) Anyone spotted the "easter egg"??
