I didn't realise the armrest was an option! I love the two stage position, very comfy for "cruisin' innit"

Seriously, you guys rate the armrest?!?! Single-handedly the worst optional extra available bar none.

Depends what you're running. 2011 discs are a huuuge improvement over the 2007 ones I was using before.wrekka wrote:My car was too good to turn down, but sadly doesn't have sat nav, does have ss+, black optics, auto boot, arm rest.
