There are two things I guess.

1/ Get somewhere as fast as possible in a safe and easy manner or----

2/ To hell with the time, just go out and enjoy the ride.---

Replacing the front fog lamp bulbs with LEDs and turning them on individually as Corning lights linked to the indicators but also retaining their use as front fog lamps.

Cruise control...wouldn't buy a car without it now, it's just the height of laziness and an aid to not exceeding speed limits accidently and picking up 3 points.

Heated seats.....First car with them, just brilliantly relaxing and warming on a cold day.

Rear sun blind....I just put it up and back down occasionally just for the hell of it and not for any particular reason....it just amuses me to do so.

I am absolutely with you here.

Cruise Control is premium! Especially on long distances. I remember when I had the small car, driving long distances. After 20 minutes you ask yourself:" Do I have to put my foot on a pedal the whole time???"

Heated seats! Mega premium! The morning is cold here. You hop in and after some minutes I put the heated seats on. It makes a difference!!!! Amazing!

Unfortunetly my read snubbing wont work anymore Hope I can repair it soon! Otherwise I must bring it to a mechanic. So I must revise my top 3.

On the third list: Wheel control! When I listen to the radio I can control the sound or put my smartphones music on. Also controlling the cruise control with it! Like a boss!
