Hello from Netherlands

chr8nrfts · Mar 14, 2017

Hello everyone.
I live in the Netherlands.
On January 25, 2017 I bought a Toyota C-HR 1.2T Multidrive CVT, Color Metal Stream Grey (1K0), equipment package Dynamic, 18" Toyota Multi Spoke Wheels with Yokohama Advan 225/50/18 tires and for winter 17" Toyota Style Wheels with Yokohama W-drive snow tires 215/60/17.

I'm still waiting for the delivery of the C-HR.
The expected delivery date is mid-April.

On this forum, I hope to get ideas to personalize the C-HR.

(sorry if I did not write English well)

Welcome to the forum! Everyone is pretty much waiting for the new C-HR deliveries.
I'm from Canada and we don't seem to have the Dynamic Package which made me believe that the features will come standard, but I can't see the Auto dimming rearview mirror feature on the spec page. wonder if there are region specific features for the C-HR.

How much did everything end up costing you?

chr8nrfts · Mar 14, 2017

In Netherlands we pay very much tax for cars. The prices are much higer than other countries.
Below the Dutch prices( 1 feb 2017) from al packages and engines available;

My C-HR is arrived by the dealer 😎

iRobot · Apr 5, 2017

Well, thank you very much for all of that in depth information first of all! Now let's see some pictures of that C-HR when you pick it up !! Congratulations

Converting the base model to USD and comparing it to the MSRP there, the C-HR costs 3k more. Ouch.

Let us know how your drive home in the brand new C-HR feels.

The price from the basemodel is 14433 euro without tax, more then 10000 euro is going to the government

Guess import taxes in the Netherlands are a lot higher than North America if the gov't is getting half of the final price. Are you picking up the C-HR this weekend?

Is not import tax but CO2 TAX.
Pick it up at April 14th.

iRRegular · Apr 9, 2017

****, That's a hefty tax. Nonetheless, can't escape it so you gotta do what you gotta do. April 14th is right around the corner though, getting excited?

Yes of course excited.
Because the cars are expensive here that's why you get also a lot back for your old car.
So figuratively it is only the first purchase which is very expensive , unless you always buy a larger or more expensive car.

So at the end of the day it works out then which is alright.

Have you thought of any modifications that you'd want to get done ? Granted you haven't gotten to drive it around yet but at least aesthetically?

Yes in the future i think some mods came.
My current car also have many mods.(engine, gearbox, and handling)

chr8nrfts · Apr 10, 2017

BTW, the first mod is mounted when I pick up the C-HR.
The stock wheels came with snow tires, and mounted when I pick up the C-HR are Toyota Multispoke wheels 18" With Yokohama Advan tires 225/50/18.
For pics see my garage.

TubeMan · Apr 10, 2017

Are these the Toyota Multispoke wheels? They look very nice on the C-HR.

Yes they come at my C-HR.

SiR · Apr 10, 2017

I don't like them at all, looks like it belongs on something from an older era and not this one. But if thats what we get, it will be the perfect catalyst to create an excuse so I can go aftermarket

chr8nrfts · Apr 23, 2017

Did a 260 km trip yesterday. Very nice driving in the C-HR.
The fuel economy was 6.4 liter at 100 km
Not bad for the relatively heavy C-HR.
Average speed on the highway about 115 kmh

I live in Denmark, and it's even worse here! The C-HR starts at 38.900 euros (or 289.000 DKK). However that tax applies to all our cars, so we're used to the high prices in general. :frown2:
For example the Toyota Aygo costs 14.800..
