Bloody Petrol cap/boot release

[Davel]

Almost every time I set off in the XK8, I notice the warning light for the 'boot open' or when I next stop, the fuel filler cap is open - and I've only got size 9 feet!

What a place to put the two switches!

Nearly as good as an older BMW bonnet release.
Next to the right foot

A bit of a problem with wide size 11's (flippers)

The boot and filler cap release switches are perfectly placed for you to switch them both with your knee when you get in - bloody annoying isn't it!
