I fully agree with her.  :y
Apart from the obvious handle scuffing, the black goes milky as well.  :(

Although she agrees that the finish is poor and inferior on the FL, and the door pins are annoying, her frustration with them are based around their fundamental design.

So ... where does she want the switches to be then ???   :)

Door handles. Nothing to hang on to when you are a passenger on a spirited ride.

Good design imo, but the door flap storage compartment is uncomfortable when your knee rests/hits it solid plastic not soft, That's my only problem apart from the soft touch plastic looks messy once its all chipped....

We were in the Silver Bullet, and she was glad of the superior design when a series of Milton Keynes roundabouts lined themselves up nicely....

Better elbow room/support on FL I find, don't have issues with door pins on any of ours.

::) Just tell her to reach up and thank the Lord...(that someone thought to put a grab handle above the door) :y

If Mrs TB has small hands, then she ought be able to use both hands ;D

Ah, there lies a problem. She has already broken the passenger side grab handle on TBE (due to no proper door handle to hang on to)

Does she suffer with motion sickness if she sits in the back :-\

Sometimes she can sit and read whilst being driven, other times she just feels sick all the time. It depends on how bad her vertigo is that day.  In snow, for example, she prefers not to look, as the falling flakes disorient her, making her feel sick (she's reliant on her eyes for balance/orientation, as her brain ignores her ears, which report her head is shaking)
