About to buy a DC5S - need opinions.

[DaRKNT]

I intend on enjoying it :P
As for thrashing the car - it's possible, but it seems to be all good mechanically - and now I get to baby it. That said, if anything does go wrong, I either deal with it or make a warranty claim - too late for anything else now.

[tinkerbell]

if it were me - i'd be doing a full comprehensive service straight away...

[DaRKNT]

Yeah, I'll book it in once I get my hands on it. Was planning on and oil change and what not right away anyway.

Your a fussy person like me. I don't even get in and out of the car without being paranoid about collapsing my bolsters over time. It's a struggle but it's worth it.

[DaRKNT]

Haha, funny - I was worried about that. I'm even considering buying a new center console, just because this one has a scratch or two.

Do it lol

[DaRKNT]

Type R console is a drop in replacement for Type S console, right?

I hate this - such an effort to not wreck my DC2R's bolsters

Scratch on the indicator shroud... might have to replace it.

the rips on the shift boot is prob due to trashing and shifting the car

[plAythiNG]

Just buy a new shift boot?

you got it hard cos your bolsters are high lol.

i love immaculate cars, its worth every bit of the struggle

[DC2R]

Sounds like the Type S has had a hard life. As tinkerbell suggested.. Definitely thrashed!! LoL

[fr4n]

i cant comprehend how one can use a shifter so that the boot wears. unless the guy had dinosaur hide for hands

The car sounds like it was thrashed and not loved like it should have been...

A moment of silence for a damaged comrade...

I changed mine after buying car at 30k km. The old lady that had owed it previously had worn it down by getting her wedding ring rubbing against it.
