Title: Newbie in Sydney
Post by: BlueI30 on February 22, 2010, 00:11:13

Gday all.  Have been lurking on this forum for a little while . Looks like a great site and has helped us decide to buy one of these cars.
Time to say Gday as we have ordered a Vivid Blue SLX Diesel Manual from our local dealer yesterday and of course can't wait till delivery (currently maybe 4 weeks away)  :rolleyes:
Cost $25,500 driveaway with mats, bonnet protector and full tank (trading a VS Commodore wagon) .


Cheers
Dave

Hi "another" dave  :D (lots of dave's on this site)

Great choice... will feel as powerful as your current vehicle but should cost about half as much to run... :cool:

Yes .. we are looking forward to that !! Of course won't be able to fit anywhere near as much gear in it when we go away .. but time we downsized.

Thanks all for the warm welcome  :)
