DS3 HDi dsport in Black.

[DAVEYBOYROCK]

Hi all, new to the forum!!
I'm getting a ds3 hdi dsport this weekend as a company car, never driven one and probably won't have chance before it arrives.
What are they like for space as the driver as I'm 6ft2 tall & well built?
Also do all dsport have Bluetooth phone connection?
Currently drive a focus st3 58reg so looking forward to running a diesel.
Cheers all :-)

Hi and welcome!

I have a friend who's around 6ft4 that drives their DS3 fine plenty of room in the front of the car.

All Dsport have Bluetooth connection as standard.

Good luck with your new car

Thanks Chris you have put my mind at ease.
Quite excited about it, mainly about the mpg as I'm getting an average of 19mpg in my focus at the minute.

I'm 6ft 5 and have no issues driving the DS3, it's like a Tardis inside, especially compared to the much bigger Astra Sport hatch I had previously I'm currently averaging 58mpg on mine with a/c on all the time and a heavy foot

[DAVEYBOYROCK]

Brilliant!! 58 mpg sounds pretty impressive. Well it's just a waiting game now, Saturday can't come quick enough. :-)

I'm pleased with it (way better than the Astra CDTi I had previously), I think if I used the A/C less and didn't enjoy the acceleration so much I could get higher mpg too !

Hello Daveyboy- welcome to the club. Come from an ST- be good to hear the comparison
Was gonna get an Orange ST, 5 year ago. But got married instead LOL. (That costs more- Ha)

Hi Chris - Cheers, yes I'll be sure to compare, ST is a great solid car, the growl from the T5 volvo engine is fantastic and always makes me smile but with the mpg along with people daily who tailgate/want to race, it's getting abit annoying now.
Plus living near Blackburn there are cameras & police everywhere these days so it's hard to enjoy the car. :-(

Do u not notice a drop in power with the A/C on constantly? The ST drops loads with it on.

[lfcrule1972]

No, well to put it the other way I don't feel an increase in power when I occasionly turn it off
