Spanky Deluxe is on a distinguished road
Had a great day driving the car properly for the first time today - took the dog for a walk with some friends. They loved the rear climate (although I did notice that far more cooling goes to the rear than the front with it on). My fiancée had her first drive it too.

We tried out the third row seats in the evening too and they were surprisingly good. Obviously tall men can't fit in them (my 6" friend and I (I'm 6'2") struggled) but my fiancée and my friend's girlfriend loved them (apart from speed bumps). We also had a drive with the two girls in the third row with the middle seats down and with the headrest screen showing a film on. Silly but loooads of leg room!

We both love the HUD and it works really well with directions. However, the sat nav is (as expected) a bit pants and doesn't hold a candle to a cheap TomTom or the TomTom iPhone app. It chose a particularly bad route for the way back. I think it does use traffic updates but not very well. I need to get a new mount for my iPhone I think for any serious routes although I'll probably hold off until the iPhone 5 comes out.

One last thing, is the centre glove box chilled? It's always cold. I'm guessing it's the air going to the rear climate vents that are making it cold as a by product.
