Picked up my "new" ex demonstrator with 14k on the clock last. Bought it sight unseen on carsales.com.au for a tad under $30k.
Lovely car.. Excellent transmission and engine (averaging 7.8 in the city and 6.6 combined). Handling is good, lots of space. With the technology though, The blind spot and lane departure warnings seem a waste of time, and the auto dimming headlights only work 50% of the time. I've set the sensitivity to lie but they still go to low beam unnecessarily. The converse+ display is pretty useless too. The adaptive cruise control however is brilliant! Very happy thus far (2,000 k's first week). |

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your purchase.
I agree some of the wiz bang tech on cars these days seem a bit pointless to me. I'd love to have the big Sync 2 touchscreen and some decent wheels from the new model on my povo pack though

Congrats and Welcome.
It's a great car and deserves to get more exposure and street cred than what it's getting. Cheers |
