A new (soon to be) i30 owner from Australia

Hi Everyone
A 'newby' from Australia here
Due to take delivery of an i30 Elite soon. Loved it in the o/night test drive!!
Wondering if anyone has views on the value of the auto sensing/dipping rear view mirror.
It's standard on the Premium but not the Elite.
Is it worth buying as an extra? What sort of cost? Anyone know?
Thanks for your time in anticipation

I wouldn't worry with the auto dipping mirror, I've only had it once and didn't do much for me. However, I always get my windows tinted which takes the sting out of the headlights of cars behind you anyway

If I HAD to have an extra,I'd like it to be Auto dipping external mirrors,how hard is it to flick the toggle switch on the mirror inside the car,I rarely use that option either,unless you get some inconsiderate dick who can't dip their lights when their behind you.

Like Dazz said,decent window tint generally fixes the issue.
