Those little things

Post by Daveya »

Dor strips, not aluminium anymore

MDI with space for a phone or iPod in the glove box, yet it's so small a Blackberry won't fit in it

The seat just won't quite go low enough

The cup holders, try getting a coffee in one when driving

Satnav, like Tom Tom, about 2 secs to slow getting you in the right lane, those 2 secs are crucial on a roundabout.

Sat nav, why no symbol for next turning so when you come off the roundabout you know what lane to get in?

Why no symbol in the dash when front fogs on?

Why no speed dials available on screen? I have to either scroll through or pick the phone up

Why an ashtray instead of a handy cubby hole for a phone?

Can't do a conference call via the wheel because you can only access a keypad on screen.


But on the other hand, at last auto dimming mirrors that dim enough, no doubt helped by the darkened glass on the Sport and the DAB reception is great and sound quality is improved. Proper sized door pocket for a change, you can get a large bottle of water in it and unlike the Golf, you an actually put stuff in it.
