New DS 3 'Dark Light' Special Edition

[BeefMasta]

No, unfortunately the Dark Light comes with standard pedals

Ahem...

Aluminium sports pedals

[WTF]

Would it not be odd to have sports pedals on an Auto?

Bigfeet, have you not read the limited edition post on Stefi?

[Bigfeet]

Read and filed it when it first came out, as well as the amended version.

Have Seen Some DStyles Here with them and LHD Autos. Don't know if there is a pack that included them hence why some DStyle had them.

Also The DS4 has them :-)

I've always wanted them even though I can't use the pedals mind just for the looks really lol.

BCC Bolton have got one of these in at the moment so I had a look...what a disappointment. I thought the design was sort of holographic. Like it would change as you moved round the car but it doesn't. It's just a small piece of vinyl that covers about half of the side.

I loved the look of this edition when I saw pictures but I cannot believe how much of a ripoff it is.

Got my Dark Light the other day and very happy with it.

However, as per the advertised spec on many sites.. It appears to be missing 'Dark Light Dashboard Badging' and the Chrome Pedals.

Also, I wouldn't say the provided mats I got were premium (also advertised as part of the Dark Light spec). Can anyone else with a Dark Light take a photo of their mats? I have seen better mats on ebay with either Citroen or DS3 embroidered on them. My mats appear just plain. I just want to make sure my Dealer didn't take out decent mats and replace them with shitty ones.

My DSport Plus came with mats and they're fairly plain. No Citroen or DS branding/badging on them and they're quite thin, but they're official.

Dark Light

Hello All

Got a DL last week for my fiancée and very pleased with it.

Met another new DS3 owner by chance and he said his garage had told him to ideally not exceed 3000rpm
For the first 2000 miles.

Nothing about this in the owners handbook/manual, and I will speak to my dealer about it.

Just wondered if anyone had any views/thoughts. Thanks.

Not sure about the petrol engined DS3s but the diesels definitely don't need to be run in - I triple checked with my dealer and also read a few posts on here about it

I didn't get any of this either!

Thanks Ifcrule 72. Checked with my dealer today. Seems for my petrol auto, first 1000 miles, I should drive steadily,
not over 3000 rpm, until the engine has bedded in.

They should have told me when I took delivery.

No major harm done, but annoying.

Standard consistency with the dealers advice then ! Pleased you're told about the petrol anyway....
