Henny 0 Posted June 21, 2004 yeah, I got one for ya... ;) it bugs the hell outta me that in the later models, they put in a big fuel tank so they also fitted a space saver... and it STILL hasn't got a flat boot floor... :? :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coolrado 0 Posted June 21, 2004 the way nova and corsa chavs allways think i want to race :mad: and the buffeting effect when the sunroofs open with the windows closed :( apart from that...... nothing really :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KARMANN 0 Posted June 22, 2004 The fact that iv been sitting here for 5 solid mins and have thought of nothing,makes me think theres nothing! Sure theres little things,but most of them are down to the fact its on its way out or its needing fixed etc. Design and styling is spot on IHMO-sure year after year the dash looks more out of date,but i prefer the chunky 80s style dashes than the modern curvey, cheap, hairdresser style ones.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 22, 2004 how when it rains if you open your window ever so slightly......you get a soaked arm and water on to the carpet between the seat and door :roll: :roll: :roll: :mad: Yep that's my grievance too. Not only do you get water on your arm and floor but also it drips directly onto the window switches. The perils of gutterless rooves unfortunately! Oh and each time I pull the fag lighter out, it pulls the whole sodding panel out. God these cars are poorly made...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 22, 2004 and the buffeting effect when the sunroofs open with the windows closed :( Most sunroof cars do that. The C's sunroof is especially crap because the wind deflector springs are hopeless and it doesn't deflect the wind at all past 70mph, so it's noisy as hell. Not too much work to fit stronger springs on the deflector though :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just walk away. I managed to find a beautiful one for just over £5k so keep looking. I was on the assumption that I would need to look at at least 10 before I found the right one. You'll get the tingle when it's the one though, if you don't, just walk away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andihaz 0 Posted June 22, 2004 I hate how the full beam blue dashboard light is so dull, that I keep on forgetting to dip my lights! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kangaroo 0 Posted June 22, 2004 Maybe its just my seat height (and I'm a tall guy, 6'2") but when the spoiler pops up it completely obscures my view of the road in the rear view mirror :? It means I have to crane my neck up slightly everytime I want to check I don't have a copper tailing me on the motorway... And I find it hard to 'quickly' flash someone with the main beam, i always pull too vigorously on the stalk (ahem) and switch main beam on full, completely blinding the person I'm flashing at. These could just be teething issues and niggles I learn to put up with though, I've only had it 2 weeks after all :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted June 22, 2004 Yeah, I dislike the pull-to-switch nature of the headlights too. Plus the fact that it's too easy to forget to reset the headlight beam back to "normal" when flashing someone during the daytime.. Plus the fact that the stupid LEDs on the dash all look like they're lit up when you get sunlight shining on them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scruffydubbers 0 Posted June 22, 2004 Yeah i hate the rear visibilty and the fact that it halves when the spoiler rises. and the price of some of the parts second hand and new when there not really that special Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kongo127 0 Posted June 22, 2004 I don´t like the gearbox that much... :wink: It could be a lot better! The headlights are too poor! :oops: But i still love very part of him! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
