Picked up the car on Thursday night, so far covered almost 900km. I travel around 60,000km a year. It took approx 6 months to arrive.
Im happy with the car, the gearbox and its ratios complement the engine perfectly, the turbo does suffer from lag but getting used to it, still trying to find that perfect position for the drivers seat. So far fuel econemy has been 5.6l/100km with approx 75% Highway and 25% sydney traffic... Once the engine runs in and loosens up a little these figures will change.
mmm better book her in for the 1000km service, i bet they didnt expect me to come back so quickly.

That towbar looks the same as mine too, took me a while to figure out what the rattling was in the back, was the toxbar rattling in the holder. You can remove it and only refit when you need to tow something. Congrats!

Ditto about the towbar. Took me a few days to work out that the clunk from the back was the towbar. Removed it and the noise went away.
