Fuji 5 Door SD4 Prestige - paulelescoces - 13-02-2012 09:12pm
Ordered in June last year with an expected "september/october" delivery and have just picked it up today...
Fuji 5 door prestige SD4 with roof bars Vibe interior, AD & style 6 wheels (and crossbars fitted in the photo as I am looking for a roof box that will fit in my garage...).
Interestingly the 20" came fitted with Michelin Latitude Sport (I was expecting Contis) although I will be changing for the winter wheels I have purchased recently (Style 5). Came with full tank of gas and had a good handover where the dealer explained most of the functions (even though I knew most after reading this forum).
Very happy... drives great, very comfortable.... feels big and spacious inside while having quite a small footprint.

Congratulations, looks gorgeous, can't wait to get mine

Fantastic! I note you have gone for the factory sports bars. I was a bit concerned as the brochure suggests you can only get 2 bike carriers on! Can't see it myself?

Congratulations - that looks fantastic!

sure, I fitted the roof bars as at minimum I will fit a ski carrier... although I would like to fit a roof box, I will need to carefully measure to see if I can park in my garage with the box fitted.... roof is 2m high... I have been checking the Thule Excellence, not sure but might be tight, don't expect I can open it in my garage (not the biggest issue... I can pack when parked outside but will be a pain in the ass If I need to remove for parking)
I like the look of the roof bars.... actually not even too bad with the crossbars fitted although I will likely remove them when not in use.

Am expecting to have to go for the LR bars (Thule anyway) as the Thule system specified for the roof rails looks like its been put together in a hurry and is in effect looks to be a universal fit system anyway. Wanted something a bit more bespoke than the non rail roof bars that I have that on my current car. I like the look of the roof rails anyway.
Enjoy your purchase!

I think the LR roof rails look great... silver on Prestige & pure or black on Dynamic. I all try and take some better pictures in the next days... only got late in the day and had to take pictures in the garage with limited space.

Please! We'll compare notes as I'll be running with black rails on a Firenze Prestige. Am expecting it not to clash with the chrome waist finishers.

In saying that the Black will also look good on the prestige as there is quite a lot of black so it will not look out of place. I guess the only combination that would not make sense is Silver on Dynamic.
