My New Yeti

[Pomie]

Yeah really happy with the car, I have to watch the speed now find myself doing mid 80's in 70 limits all the time and when it's parked at the lights it sounds like ......well it has no sound, the first few times I thought it had conked out just ringing about a few places to get it tinted next and then give it a good polish/wax when my stuff arrives.
Using autoglym as used it in the uk and Results were great, so far no negatives apart from me parking as far away from other cars when going to the local shopping centre to avoid the soccer mums cars with the jump out the car and swing the door wide open children ...lol

Congrats on the purchase; they are a unique and great looking vehicle. My sister and her husband picked up a Yeti about 6 weeks ago (Red with black roof) and they love it. I had a quick sit in it recently and was really impressed with the interior fit and finish. You don't see many of these on the road, but every time I see one I do a double take.

On a slight tangent, they purchased their Skoda in Canberra (don't know the name of the specific dealer) and were very impressed with the whole sales process. They never felt pressured to purchase, and the dealer even let take a demo vehicle overnight so they could really test the car out over an extended period. I haven't heard of that happening before.

Enjoy the car

There are many types of tints out there, and sometimes it's hard to compare apple to an orange. For me, tint has only 2 purposes:
1. Cut the UV light - to keep car cooler and minimize risk of skin cancer.
2. Privacy and look cool!
For UVs, most tints will cut 99%. Some premium tints will cut 100% but the price may double. IMO, it's not worth double the price. I'm happy with 99% UV reduction, as long as it's darkest legal tint, and gives life time warranty (ie. They will replace the tint whenever it bubbles or cracks!) I'm happy with the cheapest one.

I am feeling guilty. I used this site for information and good knowledge. Have had my manual diesel Yeti 4x4 for about 6 weeks. Love driving it.. here are some poor pics, if I know how to upload. Has off-road, roof racks, front/rear sensors, 5 years warranty. Thinking of painting roof in family tartan!

How does one post pics on here? It asks for a URL?
