As for the sat nav.... I've just purchased a new tom tom where I can check the 5 day weather of my destination (or anywhere else for that matter), it can handle all my text messages and phone calls and has a live traffic alert! Don't think the fitted ones on the 75s have these functions...... But having a TV would be wicked!!!!

TV is nice so is sunroof but at this time of year I only use mine if I want to wash my hair on the way to work or spend a couple of days in hospital with frost bitten ears

I'd love the leather seats with the air-flow holes. Mine gets oh so sweaty in the hot summers that we appear to have had recently!
I've taken to placing a towel on the seat before I sit down! Not very good for your image!!!

I guess I am one of the many lucky ones who have the Conn SE HiLine SatNav model with most of the extras every one appears to want. I have cruise control and the rear windscreen blind, also have an electric sunroof too, although have never had reason to open it due to the great A/C system.

There are two things I would like to change /add; Traffic Master to suppliment the SatNav system and to modify the webasto heater so that I can turn it on when I want it on and not just when its below 5 degrees outside.

Not asking for much from Santa.

Cheers,

All

**IF** I could only have one it would be ESP,

But..considering its christmas, I'd like:
V8 power (>350bhp quadcam Mustang or Chevy LS)
FULLY Adjustable dampers (Ride height and damping like the new TT)
Four wheel Drive (yes really!!)
Powerfold mirrrors (MUST operate automatically when ignition turned off)
A bigger boot!
Webasto/Kenlowe preheating system

the ones I have and most like:
LPG conversion (33.9ppl)
Xenons
auto dim rearview mirror
reverse parking sensors
Towbar
Kenwood stereo w/6cd changer
Snooper Indago satnav/camera spotter

Actually searching for:
the ability to turn off reversing sensors when towing...
quad exit exhaust with 'real' exhaust note!
Induction kit (half fitted so far!)
17" wheels (to improve ride quality)

Don't want (on any car):
Leather seats
electric seats (what a waste of weight!)
Factory fit Satnav (unless its the Jaguar one!)

Talking about a good suspension, be sure everyone to check this new suspension from Bose. For the moment, it's still in design, but they are looking into ways to have installed as a 1st fit on high end cars, then as retrofit on remaining cars afterwards. Be sure to check the video clips also to show the drastic change in the car behavior. Their links are on the lower right side of the page and they run under Quicktime. The most stunning effect can be seen in the "Bump Test Track" movie.

Enjoy, really, as I can't wait to get my hands on some these for my car!

Hi crazy ! They do come up quite regularly on ebay. Don't just look for leather seats. There are many offers of cars which when you open the page say they are breaking, all parts available.
They seem to go for fairly reasonable prices in my opinion, considering how many folk are after them.
Could try : Roverbreakers.com Tel. 01606 738873.
reclamet.co.uk Tel. 01843 823554/823224.
bestofbritishrover.btinternet.co.uk

Just persist, they do come up !
Good Luck
