Hi Moxey, thanks.

Hi Juan, sorry to be late welcoming you here (been rather busy recently )

 


There, see. It's official now 

[hornbill]

Hey Shambles, thanks. Wow, there's quite a few moderators (maybe more than 1 administrators) here??

I guess, you are "The One" super admin around here?..:-) Yeah, i've been busy lately too (mainly researching on cars, and in the end decided on i30cw).

Glad I made the purchase though, 1 BIG headache OFF my mind now...

Hi Hornbill

I recently purchased a 2010 i30 cw sportswagon 2.0.
The dealer gave me paint protection for free and the window tint on all windows ( except windscreen) was
$ 445.00

I also purchased headlight and bonnet protectors as well.  Have since fitted a polished alloy nudge bar, looks great.

Regards

hi Hornbill

my CW Trophy was built Oct 2010, with comp plates showing 01/11 & i got it from the dealer 8 March with 28kms on it.  they still referred to it as an 11 model.  i never really thought about this when i shopping around for a car (why didn't anyone show me this forum before!  ) but after some haggling i got style visors & a bonnet protector & the metallic paint was thrown in (they said the hyper silver only comes in metallic anyway).  not sure if the end of Feb (which was when i was getting serious into buying a car) had anything to do with the deal i was able to get.  could they be meeting quotas at the end of the month?    or the fact that i played one dealer's offer to another? 

at any rate good luck with your purchase mate!

Hi niffty, congrats and welcome to the club. Sounds like you got yourself a good deal there.

jabber, I sent you a PM. Want to ask some details about your car. It should be close to what I'm getting...

I guess, you are "The One" super admin around here?..:-)

Well yeah he is but do you have to rub it in 

[jabber]

hey hornbill i sent you a PM! hope all my jibber jabber (that's not where my name came from ok!) makes sense to you

Sorry for being late in welcoming you mate! 

[hornbill]

Hi  bumpkin. What a cool car you got there mate. What's a TPMS btw? Sounds techno to me..

[Shambles]

... What's a TPMS btw?

I can answer that for you John. It's his Travel Planner & Mapreading Service - in other words, his wife

(click to show/hide)

Actually, it's the very useful Tyre Pressure Monitoring System; I've got it installed too. It lets you know which of your tyres caused the crash you just had

[hornbill]

Wow. That's cool. No more guess work with the tyre pressure. Does that thing come standard? Mine will be an SLX, or is it an after market thingy?

How much is it? Is it sold here in AU?

[bumpkin]

Don't think the Aus version has it, I am not even convinced that the UK Premium Spec even has it any more......
