Graeme,
The SE variant does not have the Arabiaca(Darker)tops on the door trims, only the HSE variant gets that. Same with the wood trim, only available at no charge to the HSE variants.

Sneigy,
I remembered after making that post that the Aussie (and UK too) specs show Arabica door tops for leather and premium leather and nutmeg door tops for cloth seats.

Congrats Roamer, :clap2:
It is a lovely vehicle & do take the time to read the manual, there is a lot of stuff in the manual that may or may not of been explained to you, when u picked it up. The hand over times are about 3-4 hrs if u do it properly.
There is a lot of new technology & it is all good as the CAN Bus network is quicker, things just work, instantly, like the Nav as it is HDD.
Enjoy.
I Cant praise the vehicle enough.;)

It's the missus' car, but she let me sleep next to it, wash it and pay for it
I just hope she lets me in it soon

Been reading the book for two days and trying stuff.
thought the D3 was awinner but this is just awesome, :D
Put it into sports mode and the beast was unleashed, :twisted:
The look at the front with LED & headlights on at night is like WOW.
So impressed worth every cent (and theres alot of them)
Think I'll go out and look at it again
Thanks for advice. cheers Ken
