Questionable:
Fuse box behind the glovebox. Am I a contortionist or something?
Rear vision when reversing.
Road noise on the standard tyres. Front suspension feels choppy too. These points are much better in the CH Lancer.
Mirrors need adjusting to.
Can't set central display to keep long term fuel consumption. Any hints?
Space saver spare - then again, our CH Lancer from 2004 has a full size spare, but it has never been needed. It's a brand new, 10 year old tyre. lol

Likes:
Outside air filter - works well, easy to change.
Fuel consumption - 7.1 L/100 km (2L manual, 2011 ES) where my 2001 Magna auto gets 13.4 L/100 km on the same trip around town.
Indicator sound - 2 settings for the sound it makes, haven't played with it yet.
USB port in the glove box roof.
Door speakers, not likely tyo get Sun damaged.
Aircon - unobtrusive yet very effective.
Long life coolant. 6 (or 8 ?) years between changes.
Iridium spark plugs.
Chain drive - no more 5 year belt changes!
Easy DIY oil and filter changes.
That clutch and gearbox! A pleasure to use.

The alternative indicator noise is nuts though, I think it is aimed at deaf old people that need it to be as loud as an air raid siren so they know they've left the indicator on.

Sure is loud! But good if you are a deaf old fart, or are worried about accidentally leaving the indicator on. No way you could ignore that electronic beep! Might change it back soon though, can be quite annoying really.
