Built in Sat Nav  :-\
Only because of the location of the turbo, I have my Tomtom on the right side and there is no room for my DAB or Phone  :(
So Phone stays in the cup holder by USB and DAB is in the passenger cueie and is set before driving away

    We once had Cruise control retro fit to a 500 for a customer.
    It was £300 fitted and worked perfectly.

    Cruise control and a decent Bluetooth iPhone/iPod music player.

    Why they opted for a 'compatible with windows' system is beyond when Apple have the lions share of the market.

    I have no idea . . . i've had them on a few cars in the past and apart from 'trying them' on day one I never found a need or use for them.  Seems a popular request though   ???

    Cruise control, dual (passenger and driver) zone climate control, heated screen, heated seats, electric memory driviers seat, electric folding mirrors, deadlocks, alarm, sat-nav..... But all that would make it cost a ridiculous amount of money for a small car ..... Cruise control is essential really, I've just gone over to Ireland and did a few hundred miles on the motorway and forgot how useful this option is on a car.......


    Oh and a lockable glove box - that one isn't difficult is it? ::)

    Forgot about that one.
    Surprisingly they do have them on A500's for other markets

    If you saw the number of mirrors that got kicked off parked cars in Bath you wouldn't be asking that question.

    You can still kick off a folded mirror though.... infact it'd probably do more damage being kicked off when folded.

    That's true but most of the culprits are drunk and it's too much effort to go for the folded in mirrors. Generally they are left alone and are unscathed.
