G'day

[Parian]

Greetings all from Brisbane.
Picked up the Levorg GT (lapis blue) today and after a 200km drive i am well pleased on the purchase of the base model.


Thanks to IANDLP for the pinstripe over window trim idea, it certainly makes the vehicle look much better. Will upload photo of the so far completed Levorg soon.
I changed the dealer supplied number plate holders to black ones, removed their stickers aswell... Ain't no free advertising with this boy

Had a look at your plate, and I just couldn't resist.

its amazing how different those rims look without the black.

 

[Parian]

They sure do. I'm still undecided what to do with the rims.

 

[carpathia512]

I'm thinking of putting some gun metal Grey or Bronze rims on mine. Not sure what though. Something like this.

 

[Parian]

Will be interesting to see how those rims will look on the Levorg.

With just over 2k done now, the fuel consumption is at 8.9. This is with a 50/50 mix of urban & highway driving.

 

[Parian]

Managed to get the 'WOO' out among the bitumen mountain roads today, handles exceptionally well in comparison to the Outback. (as you'd expect)

I also drove it on 58km's of dirt road, starting from approx 120m above sea level driving up to 1000m above sea level and back down again.
Engine temperature never went above 75%.
It handled the drive better than my expectations, quite impressed!
Unfortunately it came with a cost of a 1 inch long twig scuff mark on passenger door.

Now enjoying a nice cold beverage after an exciting 386km journey

 

[carpathia512]

I also went on a mountain drive today. Similar to you I ended up about 1400m. Drove from Healesville to the top of Lake Mountain, in Victoria. If anyone gets a chance, throw your girl in sport# and you'll have an absolute blast of a time along outer-Melbournes best roads.

 

[IANDLP]

Looks fantastic in lapis blue. Very nice

 

[cherryflavouredpez]

Just wondering what size pinstripes you used on the window molding? I tried the 12mm from autobarn, but they are a fraction too small...

 

[Parian]

I used 3M tape with a size of 12mm. Precision was paramount in applying as there literally is no room for error.

Welcome to Levorg ownership, i'm sure you'll enjoy your car

 

[IANDLP]

I actually used a stripe from a Mitsubishi Coaster bus. Was the perfect size too

 

[Fred]

Very pretty in lapis blue, thanks for sharing. I have not received mine yet and am wondering how if the sports seats are good for a long drive?

 

[Parian]

As i only have the GT version i cannot comment on the leather seat comfort-ability, perhaps someone else will chime in a review for you.

What i can tell you is that after a 6.5hr drive on the driver seat i have, it is both supportive and comfortable.
I'm sure you won't have any issue's when you get your vehicle.

 

[Parian]

Will upload photo of the so far completed Levorg soon.

Soon was months later >>> http://levorgclub.com/threads/stage-1-completed.271/
