Nice 1 mate.What differences have you noticed so far in comparison to the Liberty?In regards to driving feeling.

well first thing is the Liberty was an auto, this is my first manual car. yesterday was the first time i'd driven a manual since my license test 5 years ago lol. so it was pretty eventful. spent most of the day trying to get back into the habit.

itll take a few days or so but i should be okay.

otherwise, its pretty smooth, interior is much better since its leather.

i can tell you more after a few days driving though

29500 from a dealer - kinda expensive when i could have a typeR at that price, but i prefer a cruiser

K's are high, but its only had 1 owner who (according to their suburb) came from the country and drove to melbourne every day for work lol...full service history, interior and exterior are A1 condition

it does come with extras like the cruise control (i think) and reverse sensors + a cd stacker

that car is sooo smooth when shifting gears and just cruising around. was very impressed with how she drove and looked when i saw her last night dan. must say though, that the pictures realllyyyy dont do the car justice.

thanks phil

being my first manual car in 5 yrs, i'm slowly getting smoother changing gears etc, so its a pretty nice car to cruise around in.

THe liberty was a nice cruiser too, this one is just more fun. Cornering is nice and flat, steering is nicely weighted too, and as phil said, the gearbox is smooth as hell

first mod should be HIDs, the stock globes are pretty bad, even compared to the liberty
