Just picked up my Tuscan and the one niggly thing I can see is the angle of the stereo. It aint easy to reach.

The car is 18 months old. Have they changed the angle of it in newer models? If not, has anyone bothered to move it themselves?

Cheers

Paul,

Once you have finished getting fully acquainted could you just put a quick post up of how different it feels to the Chim please?

Mate,

Dead pleased for you, finally getting your car. Why are you on the net writing??? You should be out cruising...

How is your new baby? As expected / promised?

Hi guys

Already taking mental notes of how different it is. Gear change is longer. Floor pedals take a little getting used to. Havent tried the acceleration just jet. Thought I would get used to the drive first.

On the stereo front one concern I have is that the passenegers door opener is just to the left of the stereo. I hope when I am reaching for the volume control I dont press that instead!!! It seems to need a firm press though.

Thought I had better pop into work for a couple of hours but thats enough work so its off cruising.

The door opener will not operate if the car is moving at more than a couple of miles an hour, so there is still a small risk. It is better than the original placement for door opener, which was on the widow winding button. This meant it was very easy to open the door with your knee by mistake!

Phew. I did think today when I knocked the window opener that that seemed an unusal place to put it.

Heres the first pic
