Picked up our new wagon today...

And what a great car to drive, just a little bit different to the diesel Xtrail we traded.

The HUD is a great idea.

Everything seems to be working so far no signs of any rattles or air leaks etc. One thing which is strange is the INFO screen keeps on dimming when driving, any suggestions as to why, couldnt find any settings?




Booked in for window tint next week.

Colour is Peacock Green, but it looks black in the shade.

Looks very nice in the sunlight.

cheers

wouldnt mind a better pic of the colour, still looks black to me in the full sunlight there! The dimming of the info screen is probably a built in safety feature i'd think. Nice pick up either way!

Hi,
I will try and get a better pic the next sunny day we have.

And yes if its not in the sun on the right angle it does look black.

When we picked it up, we saw a wagon sitting there walked over and then wasnt sure if it was ours, until we went around to the side in the sun and saw it was actually green and not black.

cheers

Whats so hideous about it?:banstick:

Because a cheap bit of carpet over the top of this would take all the sexiness away completely!

What sort of "protection" are they peddling?
