ive just a Corsa 1.4 Excite as a courtesy car from my Vauxhall dealer. Fitted with aircon, auto dipping rear view mirror, auto lights, auto wipers, heated seats, heated steering wheel, Bluetooth hands free, DAB, etc etc etc.


All those extra toys and the engine was about as gutless as a freshly gutted haddock !! Rolling with laughter

The seats and steering wheel took that long to warm up on the 12 mile journey home they really weren't worth the effort !! Thud

Two key words 'Vauxhall' and 'Corsa'

Land Rovers steering wheels are pretty quick to heat up and worth the £185 option IMO. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

have you noticed that TV adverts for small cars now have the following elements - Bluetooth, Alloy wheels, Fun to be in with your mates, touch screen etc? No mention of engines or anything. You might as well just put an iPad on wheels. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

totally agree, the LR seats and steering wheel heat up very quick, even quick enough for a 3 minute journey!
