I'm sure all our new CX30's were prepared the same as in this video from Apex..

I wish!
My dealer removed the shipping protection and ran the car through their automatic car wash. The extent of their pre-delivery prep.

Mine was treated with a special coating and looked immaculate. Had it not looked its best I wouldn't have taken delivery.

Mine had swirl marks put into the paint, even after requesting that the dealer doesn't touch it. I had to have a paint correction done. Dealerships suck. It's rare I find one I like.

received mine in immaculate condition.

Have to say Ihave been luck with dealers generally - though when I tried to update my Renault the local dealership were rubbish. Found a great Mazda dealer local to me who made the whole buying experience smooth - did a great deal and threw in some nice extras - and the hand over was the least rushed I have ever known. Happy with the car on pickup - looked immaculate and even had a full tank!

We use a family run business in Derby, Beechwood. We've got to know the staff and Owner very well over the past 5 years..

Mine is excellent. The guy that sold the wife her Mazda 2 seven years ago remembered who I was even after all this time. And I haven’t been in there during that time and now whilst sorting out the CX-30. They are really helpful.

Finding your way around the cx30 tech ok?
Did the dealer install the 10047 firmware for speed cameras etc?

When I asked they said that they had done all of the updates. How do I find out what the firmware is actually at? I have changed some settings but have only done about 30 miles since I got it as we are coming to the end of a 6 monthly cycle at work and as always there is not enough time in a day. 😢 I will go for a good drive at the weekend. It is already 100 times better than the SsangYong Tivoli that I made the mistake of buying 5 years ago. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Have a look in the infotainment settings...
Here are the files and information on how to upgrade....
Search speed cameras on the forum.
If not upgraded you won't have speed camera option in settings..

The contents of the HiDrive folders make no sense to me.

Update installed. Microphone not working afterwards but waited 10 mins and tried again. Microphone worked fine. No need to disconnect the battery. Thanks again Steve for your help and the link to the update files.

When I took my car for a quote for ceramic coating they said the swirl marks were so bad that I needed 2 level paint correction. Not sure if the guy was right or trying to get me to pay more money. 🤷🏻‍♀️

 

[steve67]

...if the car has been marked /has swirls from the dealers wash poor washing, then these would need removing/polishing out before the ceramic coating is applied as it 'seals'' the paint anr the marring would be under the ceramic ...
i had a ceramic applied by the dealer as part of the deal, tbh, im not that impressed, i have since clayed the car and applied a full Zaino coating and for me the car looks better and beads just as well if not better ...
here is my cx30 and my sons Mazda3, with Zaino applied.

 

[Shadow81]

Looks good Steve. I had a coating down by the dealer and so far so good - looks great and beads as you would expect in the rain.
