I'm glad I'm not the only one to do this!

The relay click on the intermittent wiper setting can be annoying but turn the stereo up or buy a loud exhaust and you don't hear it

The only thing that annoys me is my head unit won't charge my iPod but that's nothing to do with the car itself. I love everything about it!

Given I've driven it for around 80,000 miles you'd have thought I'd have learned by now. Lol

1. Seat belt doesnt always retain back when getting out of car, it soemtimes needs a helping hand to spring back.

2. Cold arse

3. Leaking roof onto shoulder when moving away from being stationary (but now fully cured that god!)

4. Coming from an ATR, twitchy at the corners (in the wet) when pushing on

5. Secret compartment shouldn't be so secret, or all the others

6. Fuel tank could be a little bigger

7. Clock, but I think I have one on my 2002 OEM radio?

8. Speakers... pityful.

9. That is all

"1. The headunit flip down panel hits the corner of your knee when down."

This. Especially when I forget to put it back up when leaving the car.. because when I get in again I hit my knee on that sharp point with some force.
