Glad Toffee is going for the rice and not the tasty power cord next to it!

I ended up tilting the seat a little more forward which solved the headrest. And getting used to the tech, the only one I'm not happy with is on is the cruise control turning on the lane keeping. The rest I've either muted, mute on start or live with.

They're quite nimble around town and suspension isn't too firm but not at all wallowy. Coming from an NB mx5 it doesn't handle the same and don't feel it wants to be flung into corners but I am surprised with how good it is.

I love how much space I have in regular parking bays with ours! It's very entertaining parking next to 'normal cars' and seeing how much larger they are but knowing the inster 95% of the time is hauling just as much around.

The use of dials on the screen and loads of real buttons for HVAC and a bit of the infotainment was a huge drawcard for me to get one. It's much easier to glance down and check speed against a dial (checking relative position of things) than try and read numbers which needs more active focus.

You should read Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky if you haven't already. Very similar tone/style around a valet robot navigating the end of civilisation.

The stance of writing books that relentlessly mock bureaucracy and pointless technologies will never get boring to read.
