171 city go Monty carlo just ordered

[thelodge]

Hi I'm new to this site..my name is Frank and I'm from Dublin Ireland.i am driving a 2010 Hyundai i30 1.6 litre turbo but due to circumstances I have to get rid of it..so I test drove the Monty Carlo 75bhp and found it a little cracker to drive..the dealer sent me a pic of the car i am getting.but it looks completely different from the one I test drove..was wondering if they have restyled the Monty Carlo.would appreciate any advice on this http://i1320.photobucket.com/albums/u525/frankmcdaid/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_20160907-170832_zpsffigqnds.png

Well that looks like a Monte Carlo. However, I wasn't aware they did a 75bhp version of it; I thought all the Montes were 60bhp.

No just checked again definitely says 75 bhp

Same as tweenster, afaik there isn't a 75hp Monte, I was in the dealers last week and they said the new model still has the 60hp engine!

Ah....

 

I see you are in Dublin, i know from previous experience they have different specs on cars than here.

 

Looking at the brochure, http://www.skoda.ie/brochures/Documents/07.2014_Citigo.pdf there are indeed different options to the UK.

Yea we tend to get the basic spec and everything else is extra

I know when I was sorting out company cars for the NI and IE guys, they got the same model Golf but the IE guys was sparse but had a much better engine, the NI guys was a slow limo in comparison

It seems to be that way..we pay for all the extra stuff like electric windows and mirrors

Have been told by Skoda that my car build date is wee 47 woohoo.so hope to have it for the first week in January

Slightly quicker delivery than usual the orders must be a bit slack with Christmas approaching.

I was thinking that myself it was a bit to quick..but fingers crossed I have it that soon
