    Picked up a new 11 plate Volvo C30 SE 1.6 Start \ Stop last week.

    Got it with metallic black, parking sensors, heated seats and bluetooth

    Enjoying the 30 mile stretch of the A19 with the cruise control and my fuel bills being halfed at the moment.

    The black was filthy after 2 days though :/

    almost certain you can find the official honda type R ones for about £40-50.

    re: weight comment in other post - a good point if your not a traveling IT tech with laptops, pcs, tools and cables in the back :P :P

    its an amazing amazing car, your enjoyment wont change between the 180 miles you have done now and 50,000!

    if you are a forum lover, head over to Civinfo - Honda Civic Forum - quite a good forum for when stuff does go wrong!

    With plus-fours and brogues, I trust...

    Don't forget to put a rug on the back seat.

    eBay for car mats is common, just looking for some genuine VW ones for the Tiguan as my early 2000 Passat mats really don't fit / squish into the foot-wells on the Tiguan as for a start its accelerator is a floor hinged pedal rather than the top ones like the clutch thus the mat can press the accelerator a bit

    Just had to fill the new car up fully today (only done odds and sods before) and feel it in the wallet £84 worth of fuel returned about 36mpg which for the size of vehicle and the fact its not use to my driving (its far to smart for its own good) and i've been booting it a bit for fun to see how pokey it is etc thats not bad at all

    Not sure I'd say I'd never have another black car, but I have the same filth/stone chips issue on my Focus. Apparently silver is the way forward to avoid this, but pretty much every other car is some variation of silver at the mo...
