Seatbelt warning bleep thingy!!! It annoys the hell out of me.
Ashtray is pretty pointless thesedays,especially in most commercial vehicles,as is the ciggy lighter as mentioned before.An mp3 socket or usb port would be much better.(hence I've replaced mine with a gang of four!)
The 12v charger in the rear is pretty useless unless it continues to charge when the engine's off.
Also, economy mode on radio and lights.I know when I want the radio or lights on, not my vehicle!! When did it know what I want better than I do?
"Cyberdines sytems Berlingo became self aware......etc"
ABS.......Brakes stop wheels turning .......end of!
I dont want them to stutter so I can't tell wether it's breaking traction,skidding or trying to accelerate thank you very muchly!
We've managed quite well skidding our bikes along over the years with out ABS so I'm sure we can manage without it in our cars.
I have a Berlingo van,new type, and if you press the key fob, it unlocks the front doors,not much use if you want the rear doors open.Aha....but, there's a button for unlocking the rear doors only! Or you can press the front doors twice and they all unlock.
What's the point!!!!??????
It can't be for security because it opens both front doors, or alternatively the back doors and the rear sliding one!!! aaaaagh!
and what's with the screw in tow hook? Can't I just have a bit of metal hoop welded to the front and rear please? it's not for aesthetic reasons, it can't be,it's a van!It's just going to fall out of the tool pouch and be lost the first time I have to change a wheel.
and whatever you do, DON'T get a traffic master sat nav!
while they will get you to your destination quite well, if you veer of your route because you know the way it's taking you is not as good as your route, then it will re-route you,all well and good.However it will then proceed to tell you which roads you'll be travelling on for your entire journey and your ETA.
and it'll do this every time you veer slightly off route!
Great fun if like me you live in Bradford and don't agree with most of the ways it takes you to major routes out.
"You are no longer on the planned route.Sat nav is recalculating a new route to your destination.Your route of "X" miles will take you on the;
A whatever, the B blah,blah, the wxyz bloody motorway. Your estimated time of arrival is 5 something or other.
There are currently no major traffic problems on your route"
And while she's been telling you all that, you've gone a different way and she has to do it all again until you both agree that you're on the best route!!!!!!
