I picked up a Titanium TDCi on Christmas Eve, then drove Adelaide to Canberra via Mildura for Christmas and NYE. Very, very happy with it so far.

It was a demo with 3,800km on it, first reg mid-October. Paid $34k changeover with a trade in that was consistently valued at $9k by all yards. Got the bonnet protector, iPod cable and boot scuff mat thrown in too (which the other half managed to squash in the boot latch the first night...)

On the highway, the trip computer gave a range of 1,000km+ for most of the trip (km on trip meter + distance to empty).

The last tank was Hay to Adelaide then 1.5 weeks of urban running, 915km on 64.85L, giving about 7.1L/100km or pretty much 40mpg. Although as I left the servo, the DTE was only 645! Not sure what consumption average it uses to calculate that...

Loving the little luxuries and features that we just weren't used to in the Sonata that got traded in. The radar cruise is already a personal favourite.

Cheers
Brenton
