thanks, shambles. Electric folding door mirrors with integrated side indicators is part of the extra features of the SE as well as 16” alloy wheels and electric sunroof. BCC Bolton throw in the rear bumper protector free of charge. She's a breeze to drive, cornering grip quite good, very little body roll, quiet on the motorway as well.

Post by: Shambles on January 23, 2009, 19:10:57: I've been using BCC since my dealer went under (Blackpool). I noticed the black protector - might invest in one

You got a great car there mate :)

Post by: L30N on January 24, 2009, 09:44:46: Great pics and well done on your purchase. White is making a big comeback. I was a bit miffed when they launched the SE model a week after I bought the Comfort :exclaim:

Post by: Rubix on January 27, 2009, 14:10:04: I prefer the look of "X miles per gallon" than "X gallons per 100km". I wonder if that can be changed on the Aussie i30s?
Sunroof, folding mirrors with side indicators... why do you get these standard on a certain model, and we can't even order that from the factory, have to arrange via ebay or external suppliers? I dunno.

But great looking car!

Post by: julian on January 27, 2009, 17:38:23: Looks just like my one. Looks like you even live on an estate just like my one. Was your house built by Alfred McAlpine's?

I understand you can reprogram the ECU.

Brought out as a Special Edition model in UK. see link:

You can buy the mirrors but when I enquired there was a problem re colour matching.

Post by: julian on January 29, 2009, 13:05:43: The garages in the background of your top pic look just like the ones here, and the house styles are similar and have windows with the fake leaded bits in them. We haven't had as much snow as you did, though!
