    i'll see what i can find, i don't think the ones i sell have gallants in the range, as they are mostly just cover the mainstream modifed range of imports with big wings wheels etc and they only seem to cover scoobys, evo's skylines, celica, mini cooper etc....

    but i will investigate and if i can get a good deal i'll let you know

    I was told you could get a chip for £100 to convert the TV, and that the sat nav would work from this with a UK sat nav disc put in the DVD player. It's all extra cost of course,, and a little dangerous watching Coro at 160+ mph.

    The guy selling the one I went to look at, i asked him to find out for sure because if i buy the car i want it done. He hasn't got back to me yet but was pretty sure the TV could be adapted, not so sure about the sat nav more was optimistic. I'll let you know what he comes back.

    the MMCS [ sat nav, TV ] will not work in the UK.
    www.protech.co.uk claim to convert it, but all they do is fit a PAL to NTSC converter, & bung a stand alone nav system in the boot. that way, the sat nav can only be operated by remote control, & not touch screen.
    best bet is to buy a PDA with tom tom, & stick it to your windscreen !!

    The one i'm looking at is Miester Blue, and from what i can tell that is a pretty rare colour aswell, the red Newera one looks good tho, those alloys are nice but better in black/anthracite but i hate the leather colour inside. If it had black leather i'd be on the phone immediately!

    You and Bl**dy meister Blue !!!!

    What pics are you guys looking at for this Red one?????? - only one i remember seeing is the one you mention, but that's been for sale for at least 2 1/2 months.
    Quite like the look of them in Red - but it will stand out and loose it's 'stealth' look IMO?
    Thinking about doing that black bib thing on mine - well front spoiler only, i cant decide!!!

    The light interior is good, especially when you don't get the moonroof. It makes the car seem far more spacious.

    Black interiors seem a little, well, German really.

    I'm a fan of dark interiors. I like the close claustrophobic feel, makes the car feel smaller and more secure IMO. I always feel more confident about 'chucking' a car around when it's smaller. My Scenic is far too open and 'airy' for my liking, it just feels huge, when it really isn't. It's all personal preference though.
