Thank you 2i30s. I have done exactly as you said (Pushed the headrests back a couple of clicks) but my head still rests against them. I'm sure I'll get used to them eventually. As I say, it is possibly because everything is new and going from a bigger vehicle to an ordinary hatchback will also take some time. One other small gripe I have. When I raise the drivers seat up high, it means that my wife feels she is sitting on the floor as the passenger as it is sooooo low. It would be great if she could lift hers up as well.
.... going from a bigger vehicle to an ordinary hatchback ...
I am surprised Lorian suggested you adjust the seatback more upright to sort your headrest issue I was going to suggest a little more laid back as that fixed my wife's similar issue with ours..(one or the other should help anyway)
Hi All,Many thanks for all your kind words and to welcome me aboard. Such a friendly bunch of people it's a shame the rest of the world wasn't like it I must apologise to Shambles & Bumpkin for saying I had bought just "An Ordinary hatchback" as I certainly didn't mean to demean the issue. It's just that my previous was a 7 seater that was a lot higher than my new i30, which is taking a bit of getting used to. Still, with every mile I put on it, I am loving it more and more and ..........
For Duke - I didn't purchase the side panels and twin exhaust. It is a limited edition model called, surprisingly, EDITION and it came already with them on it along with tinted rear windows, silver gear knob and silver "racing" pedals. Perhaps it is solely for sale in the UK.
I 'll make other postings as I go along and let you know how it is progresing. I think I'll have to either add a comment or create a new post for the cost of servicing. From what I have found out already, it is pretty expensive, considering it is only a 1.6 petrol doing about 10k miles per annum.
Interesting to find you came from a Scubie to an i30 Without offending anybody, was that not a bit of a culture shock
... you came from a Scubie to an i30 ... was that not a bit of a culture shock
Hi Bumpkin,"Depends on what you were used to, I only do about 6K per annum and compared to Subarus's service costs, I am finding the i30 very easy on the pocket"Interesting to find you came from a Scubie to an i30 Without offending anybody, was that not a bit of a culture shock
How about this as a contender?
I have already debadged it at the back and I now think it looks even better. I'll post more pictures at a later date if anybody is interested.
Lets put the Scoob and i30 side by side............
