Which model did you pick?

EymaTeapot · **July 04, 2008, 13:04:20**

Ok , Which is the most popular model choice. I am predicting Deisel Slx.

Please vote and than tell us why you picked that particular model and spec.
I gave an other option for our overseas members as there seems to be many different and wonderful option not offered in OZ.

I picked Deisel for its fuel economy and for the extra punch.
The SLX appealed as a package. I love the trip computer being a bit of a stats nut. I also prefer the leather steering wheel over the the rubber one offered on the SX. Having a young family, the added safety of the side and curtain airbags also appealed.

Cheers

Hi Eyma...

Much the same reasons as you... although subject to our budget think a few of us would have gone an SR if they came in diesel. (including you?)

EymaTeapot · **Reply #2: July 04, 2008, 13:47:18**

Your right Dazz.

I would of gone SR if it had beens available in Deisel. I love the wheels on the SR and wouldnt of than gone and put after-market 18's on the SLX. Also like the body kit but might still put a kit on it at sometime down the track. The only other option i would have liked is full leather trim but neither the SR or SLX offered us that, At least not in this country....sigh

Hi Eyma,

I guessed as much... The leather cloth combo works o/k for Tassie (leather seats a bit cold in the winter down here) although they were o/k in my Late Stepdad's Saab Aero Turbo I recently sold (3 different heat settings..) I also like the SR mags a lot although the SLX mags suit the i30 quite well (I.M.O.)

Cheers,

Dazz

I would like to vote but can't as UK models are not listed.

Can you please list UK models and I'll cast a vote.

Once a poll is made, it can not be changed !!! If you do, the poll will go crazy

I've did it before, and the results were ... lets say wooptidoo, wasn't it dazz?

Dazzler · **Reply #7: July 04, 2008, 23:00:03**

Yeah Nick (It did go haywire!)

Big Dave might be able to a tweak (I'm not sure)

bikejockey · **Reply #8: July 05, 2008, 01:28:34**

I picked diesel for the fuel economy and performance - and the reviews I read beforehand all praised the diesel.

Chose SLX for the extra 'bling' as I've seen it described elsewhere on this forum. Climate control, alloy wheels and a few other things.

Chose Protectz for the extra safety.

Hey Nick. No they're different.

Over here we have Comfort, Style and Premium only.

tzwientjuh · **Reply #17: July 05, 2008, 12:04:20**

The premium one, what does it have for extra's?

So I can compare it

Leather seats
Heated front seats (2 level heating)
Heated auto-folding door mirrors
Windscreen wiper electronic deicing
Auto dip rear view mirror
ESP
17" alloy wheels "FondMetal TECH-5" (steel spare)
TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System)

Leather gear stick
Auto climate control
Auto rain sensor (wiper control)

premium = executive

Because they are the only models met standard 17" alloy wheels

They also have the low power 1.6crdi

Making a poll of all these models ... its gonna be a big one

Dazzler · **Reply #24: July 05, 2008, 13:08:41**

Hi Guys if Dave can tweak it when he gets time.. my suggestion would be to lump similar models in together (all premium 2.0 ltr petrol for example would include Aussie SR version)

Middle of the range Diesel 1.6 include SLX plus equivilent European model .. etc..

This way would almost be able to adapt the current list to suit!

tzwientjuh · **Reply #25: July 05, 2008, 13:11:11**

Another good idea from my man, Dazz

EymaTeapot · **Reply #26: July 05, 2008, 13:19:29**

You UK boys are making me feel a bit sick.

Heated seats

Full leather

Auto folding Mirrors

Parking sensors ect...ect...ect

I though by getting the SLX model here i was getting all the bells and whistles....WRONG. My car looks like a pov pack next to yours Shambles. Even the Kiwis get more options :!:

Shambles · **Reply #27: July 05, 2008, 13:23:18**

Yeah teapot it might look that way, but at £16000 it wasn't cheap (is that around AUD 33000 ?)

eye30 · **Reply #28: July 05, 2008, 16:23:35**

Even the UK comfort, base model, has more as standard than the Oz middle models.

same as my Style but without the auto-folding door mirrors & Auto-up auto-down on all windows,
do you know how the Auto dip rear view mirror works, it's suppose to be on my Style but the rear view mirror looks just like a regular one.

Which model did you pick?
