Djelibeybi Code Monkey Member 265 Member For: 22y 2m 10d Location: Canberra, ACT Posted 24/12/02 09:14 PM Share Posted 24/12/02 09:14 PM Well, I picked up the Baby Beast yesterday at 1pm, all ship shape and gleaming. I was quite impressed with the dealer -- with all the paint and options they put on, it was delivered with only 22km on the clock.First impressions: Man, I hope I'm not responsible for all the pedestrian whiplash I seem to be causing. ;-) The XR600 plates really look awesome (pics coming later today, hopefully!) and the Silhouette paint with the tint makes the car look so agressive.Inside, the car is just beautiful, I can't fault the trim anywhere. The satellite navigation is incredibly easy to use. We've named the voice "Ruth" -- she gets really annoyed when you ignore her directions though, she kept trying to get us to turn right, for some reason. :DI'm going to try and take it up to Parliament House for some pics today and I'll post some shots of the full-screen map system as well.

Yeah, that's right, turn right.. you know you want to, big boy!":D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've left the licence plate visible, but I think you'll agree that it just finishes off the car... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove up there earlier and security is pretty tight at the moment (go figure). So, I may have to give this idea a miss, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
