Ok so all being well (crosses fingers and touches wood while avoiding ladders) I have finally taken the plunge and brought myself a MPS6! Pick it up next saturday! 24k miles in velocity red. So excited! Not looking forward to the service,fuel and tax bills but sacrifices must be made in the pursuit of driving perfection haha just a few very simple things I wanted to ask: Is there a thread on sales figures for each colour? I know just over 1000 were ever sold but "how many left" can't specify colours. I have seen the word "keyless" crop up around the forum a few times, is that for specific years or an optional extra? As mine has a standard flip blade m6 key and has to be started by key?? Were rear parking sensors universal aswell? I don't recall mine having them either? Thanks for any info and I hope to be sticking around a while yet

Appreciate the goodwill One last thing I promise, do they have "follow me home lights"? I love the forum support here and very eager to meet up with a few mps6 owners as I have only seen around 4 in my whole life! Have to wait for show season to meet most of you though as the rarity does seem to make regional meets rather impossible ;)

I don't think it's actually ever been asked before.
