Strange shape to the passenger windscreen wiper arm, and the blade looks really tiny.

Perhaps an optical illusion for size, but the shape of an arm ...
I do not know if it`s different on facelifted version or not :question:.

Wow what a lovely car.You must be so proud of it. I also love the sexy front, one of the reasons for me choosing the Edition.

I like both looks of the front and rear on the older version and the facelifted one. The chrome inserts were very appealing to me. They made the car look a bit wider. So I was a bit sad when there was no chrome on the newer version, but they obviously did a good job with the facelift in my opinion, because the new look grew on me in approx. 12 seconds. And then I was quite happy I got the new version. 8)

On my 17" crappy works monitor the pics looked great earlier today.

Here at home on my 24" Hyper-HD Acer monitor the pics look fabulous :D

There is only one thing I'm not so keen on.. the SLO badge on the back.. If we had that on our cars over here we would get stirred.... :lol:

Nobody is perfect. :)
I can not help anything about it. Crappy design by the officials... It should write GTO like on 288 Ferrari. :twisted:

Nice black CW :) I like the facelift. Is it the 115 hp version?


Pozdravljen drugače :)

Hi Accim.
It is the 1.6 petrol version with 126 HP.
My everyday driving is usually going to work and back home and is only 16 km one way + some home town in the afternoon. So I figured its best that I order a petrol version, although the six speed gearbox and diesel consumption was appealing.

Yap, stupid me.. I just noticed you've posted the car under the "Petrol pics" and you have Blue drive badge, so that can mean only one thing :) Logical choice (less stress for the engine), considering those 16 km. I also see you have a lot of equipment and even the sunroof.. I haven't seen any i30/i30CW with sunroof in Slovenia yet.. :)

How long did you wait for the car?

Almost three months. A few days less. It felt like a whole year. 8)
It`s because I custom ordered the car with additional equipment and color of my choice. Silly me. :mrgreen:

Best to have what you want .. A lot of us early adopters had to wait that long (or in some cases much longer)  :eek:

Slick ride! I like the rims on it. Look better to me than the Alloy rims you get up here in Canada with the sports package.
