  1. The Swift was like a stabbed rat with its vtec kind of performance. Lots of noise with not much progress tbh. The NX was great at this job as it just gets up and goes in any rev range. Very powerful for a large car. With the Swift you have to wait for it to get high up in the rev range before anything happens. It's definitely not a Japanese made car anymore (made in Portugal) and the build quality is poor. At least the CT is all Japanese [emoji1360] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Hi Finzky I must admit I did love all that power of the NX over my CT. It was great on dual carriageways for overtaking etc you will like it. After owning a Swift Sport before the CT I need to calm my driving down especially in my area and the CT is perfect for me. I still do miss the power sometimes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Only 177 miles Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I was loaned an NX whilst my CT was having recall work done and to be honest I found it very uninteresting and too big. It only had the standard stereo system which was terrible(mine has the Mark Levinson). I was glad to get the CT back. Of course this is just my opinion and don't want to put anybody off buying one.

  5. Basically as everyone has already said. Exterior wise just facelifted bumpers,Shark fin aerial and updated rear lamps and different wheel designs. I really like the style of my pre facelift SE L Premier. I'm not a lover of the static head unit of the later CT,I prefer my flip up one but I like the later software the facelift runs.

  8. I'm yet to use CC on the CT.Do you set it whilst moving or stationary? (I know I should read the manual too haha). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I've always used Shell in all my cars. V Power is an expensive waste of time with no effects. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. I would do all the usual visual checks on it e.g.:bodywork,wheels and interior. You'll no doubt have a warranty with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Great news Scoops! Glad all went well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I'm a bit the same Floggit. My dealer does a video walk round for me to watch. In the past I've actually bought the service items including oil and told them to use it. All the rest is inspection/advise if any. I don't let them wash it because of my paint sealer on it but they do hoover it out. It's your car do and feel exactly as you wish with it.

  13. Excellent write up Ian. Very helpful to me too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I end up with 450 miles usually. Most of the cars I've had very previously were about 55 litres. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. £289 from RAC and I'm 51. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. I wouldn't say 45 litres is a small tank. I only fill up every 3 weeks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. What I think. Dislike: As stated the low ride height making doors strike high curbs. Road noise but now only on my rear as they are awful Goodyears but I've replaced the fronts with Kumhos and extremely quiet. Likes: Well everything really. Mine is the SE L Premier with every extra specced. I will emphasise it is very comfortable. The most comfortable car I've ever owned. Also the effortless drive. The rear camera makes me lazy now when parking haha. Wouldn't be without one now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. That's interesting I don't have these options on mine (UK) but I don't have Carista either. I use Techstream. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Be careful of these. I bought one on eBay and it was full of viruses. Had to scan and remove them first before using on the car otherwise it could totally screw the ecu and modules. Also download to your laptop offline as if it's online it will try update the version you have and lock you out of it. Just a heads up as that was the problem I had. Good luck.

  20. Wow that's crazy. Good luck I hope you sort it out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Find the car it fits in a breakers then cut the plug off the loom? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. I love this feature in mine. Notice it almost instantly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. 90% town. It has to be the is250 all day long. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Exactly this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. I,m just about to purchase a Nextbase 512G as the write ups are great.its a bit expensive but has everything I need from a cam.I shall be hardwiring it into the feed in the dome lights in the roof once I find out how to remove that unit. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
