Well car was collected yesterday & only drove home 14 miles from garage & then 7 miles back in to work today but even it those few miles i love it.  :smiley: Looks great with the factory privacy glass & the heated seats have been great. Sat nav/dvd player are a nice touch as well. Just need a good day to get out for a good drive & then a good clean  :grin:,black looks great but it a pig to keep clean,i will post better pics asap  :happy2:.

Thought it was Pioneer that made the Avic? maybe wrong.
Nice looking motor mate, though with this weather do you keep coming back to a white ED30? Or after a few miles, a grey one.

I love it when you clean your car and then, for fear of getting any dirt near it, quickly take some pics before the soap suds on the floor have had time to disappear!  :wink:

Looks great - literally a shining example!  :happy2:
