    Hiya Guys. Thanks for accapting to what seems a fantastic forum.

    Im currently awaiting delivery of a thp in all black (headache trying to pick colurs) but feel ive made the right choice.

    Anyway i just wanted to pop by and say hiya and get a few answers.

    I ordered mines a month ago, and think i still have 2 months to wait (wake up thinking about this car, and go to sleep thinking off it )

    the only things im thinking of doing is the wind deflectors, and tvs on the headrest (for the kids, or if i miss eastenders ) and kit myself out with a good array of cleaning product. I believ Clive is the man to ask for this. I think mcguires might be my choice.

    Also im going to get the lights crisp.. Thinking off getting xenon hid kit, but seen a picture of replacement bulbs that look mint. Basically i want the headlights to be as crisp as the running lights, so they are all the same coulour (reccomendations will be welcome)

    And as i go along i will pic a few other small mods but aprt from that and maybe an induction kit that will be it.

    But im like a little boy at xmas waiting, and everyone on this forum has obviously had this feeling. So i believe the dsport plus comes with bluetooth, hifi (any good?) and added option is the sat nav ect?

    at present i have a vauxhall astra sxi twin port and get around 60 miles per £10 (133.7 ish at the pump) will this be better with being newer

    I never got a test drive so will just have to wait on the phone call.

    Anyway hopefully i can become friends with alot on here.

    Cheers

              I love it

              It can be good on fuel, depending on how 'spirited' you drive.

              I can get 40+ mpg on a long motorway journey. I'm averaging 35-40 mpg most of the time.

              I don't really think about it too much though, too busy enjoying myself

                  All the models have a range indicator to tell you approximately how many miles are left in the tank.

                  I tend to average about 29-31MPG with regular driving (bare in mind the mods).

                        If you have gone for a THP then you will have the Bluetooth and HiFi as standard
