Hi everyone

Just posting to say g'day & show off the new wheels. Great site you've got going on here with a lot of useful info!

So the missus & I picked up this MY19 Elite 2.0 auto last week & I'm a little bit impressed. Such a nice car to drive.
Opted for the Elite as I wasn't convinced we needed to spend more on a Premium with heated seats or a panoramic sunroof in sunny 49 degree Adelaide.
The petrol 2ltr seems to have plenty of punch for our needs too. Took it for a run to Goolwa & its effortless through the hills.
Though, I'll occasionally be jealous of those with an N!

Enjoying all the smart sense gadgets, but I havent seen FCA kick in yet - I chicken out last minute and peg the brakes. Hopefully it works!

Looking forward to some tint & a nice ceramic coating this weekend.

Welcome Snooz,

Glad you like your car and the site. Nice photo, the fancy signature is a great touch. The FCA is well programmed to not kick in needlessly. I had a 2014 Holden Calais V before my SR and my Forward Collision Warning (it didn't have avoidance) was way too sensitive!

I got to know Semaphore Park area in Adelaide quite well on a road trip (in our SR) we did in October/November last year as we stayed in a holiday park there for 2 days.  :goodjob:
