    Is that the b24 dog box?

    Damn - I was hoping that would fit and not cost me yet more money when time comes!

    Here's my list of all the small things that have cropped up in the first 1000 miles:

    The sat nav has lost it's voice controls. "Navigation voice guidance on/off" were two of the most used commands for me on the D4. I miss them.

    The seat belts in row 2 rattle.

    The seat belt stowage clips for row 3 are mounted the wrong way round. If the open end of the clip was facing the tailgate then the belts wouldn't keep slipping out.

    The brake lights (enough said).

    Intelligent speed limiter drops back to basic speed limiter mode when you start the car. There is no good reason why it can't remember its last setting.

    Deploying the electrical tow bar should engage hitch assist and the hitch guidance line. Stowing the tow bar should restore the usual parking lines. I should not have to grovel in the menus to do it myself each time.

    The error messages on the InControl panel need to be more helpful. "Tow bar not available" really doesn't aid me in solving why it's not available. (You get this if you try and select it while in access height amongst other reasons).

    The rotary radio volume control on the dash sometimes changes the volume by 1 for each "click" and sometimes it takes 3-4 clicks before anything happens (This may be a fault with my particular car).

    The rubber floor mat for the driver is tiny. It could easily have been made to cover the area just forward of the "step" on the floor.

    Most of these should have been found and fixed before release but at least half can be solved with a software update. Let's see if that happens.

    Your lucky I've lost the reversing line altogether. Also music shuffle by voice command. And music through the usb when switching on sometimes plays straightaway more often than not plays the radio or starts to play through usb for about 2 or 3 seconds then goes off the screen locks up for about 3 or 4 minutes while it re-initialise the usb stick again.

    To be fair I haven't tried the USB and I have got rattling seat belts but other than that it's all rosie.

    I'm good too, nice to see that the seat belt stowage for row 3 is as good as that on the Discovery Sport I had previously Rolling Eyes

    Aren't leather seats prone to creasing when folded regardless of manufacturer?


    From what I've read the Windsor leather is particularly soft which makes it feel more luxurious but makes it much more prone to creasing and overall wear.
