    MK3 Fabia Mods

    The filter is still on order - but a few things have been done

    * Rims painted gloss black
    * Mirror caps and grille in black (with a hint of colour)
    * Roof racks -picked up on a VERY generous discount as the car was also used for test fitting and a photshoot

    I have to admit. I'm highly tempted to copy!
    Mine will also be moon white.

    Well. Today (my birthday) I received approval for the loan. I should be picking my car up in a couple of days.
    To say im very excited is an understatement!

    My daughter got a 1.2 DSG Yeti week before last on the 1% deal.
    They charge a $750 application fee which they add to the borrowed amount
    Then 1% reducible over the 4 years for a total interest of $407 (in her case)
    Then divided by 48 months
    It worked out that on the amount she borrowed over the 4 years all up to be about 3%
    Which is still pretty good but there are charges - $4.50 per payment if you don't use a direct deposit
    and a raft of others that don't occur if you pay on time and don't get any extra statements etc

    They drive very nicely, although the 15-20 minute drive is not much when you look at the big picture
    but it was motorway plus suburban and we copped a bit of peak hour traffic too
    We ordered a white DSG Premium Sports Pack - just arrived at the dealers holding yard - pick up in about a week
    Will be interesting to see how good the Projector lights are .. anyone have experience with these ??
    Only thing missing is the gear change "paddles" on the steering wheel...guess you can't have everything

    One other thing, still not too sure about using Google maps through the phone though ...... anyone experience with this ??
    Dealer showed us with his phone but was in the showroom and not "working" as such
    meaning we could see the streets and that but he didn't enter a destination
    So didn't hear voice commands or see it actually moving.

    Of course these are only minor factors in what seems like a great car

    The headlights are fine I have done quite a bit of highway driving at night and never had an issue at all. Not the brightest (i usually replace the bulbs on my cars pretty quickly), but not inadequate by any means. No need to replace them at this stage.

    What phone are you using? I have hooked the CarPlay up to both an iPhone 6 and Samsung Galaxy S7. Google Maps using the Android is FAR superior. Nav is fantastic on it. Google Now on the homescreen is also great - distance to home, weather, audio details etc all come up and are clear. Definitely feels premium.

    Jumping on this and hopefully a bit of a bump. We just picked up our Premium Sports Wagon the other day - still less than 150kms on it.
    Looking at putting some sort of protector on the rear bumper lip where the hatch is, any recommendations? I was hoping to stick a clear plastic 3M style film on rather than a solid plastic strip. Any recommendations for this?

    Also, does anyone have a way to turn off the Automatic Engine stop? Such a pain the butt to have to manually turn it off everytime I jump in the car....... and no auto locking of the doors is annoying as I have it in my Jetta currently.
