heres some stuff that I simply dont understand about my omega and also hate it, cuz where everything else is soo good, what were they thinking when it came to stuff like this ??
1. You cannot change the cd in the player when gear in parking, thats just dumb, one always changes cds before moving !!
2. Everyone drinks something or the other in a car, WHERE ARE THE CUP HOLDERS !!??
theres none for the rear and one under the arm rest, under the arm rest !!?? Its very hard to reach something that far back, so its like either you are drinking something or you keep your arm there ??
3. You cant turn the courtesy light off, I dont like that light when entering or exiting the car, but you cant turn it off !! ( anyway its pretty useless, it hardly lights up the car )
4. The alarm only works if someone is trying to break " out " of the car rather than break in ??
5. The remote hardly has a range of 3 meters !!
But then again I understand that no car is perfect
;)

Hahahahaha !!
But why would you open the window when its raining ??
::) ;D

you don't need cup-holders, the top of the dash on the drivers side is nice and squishy - just jam any cups between that and the windscreen.
passengers aren't allowed drink.
:y

i like to open the window when i get in first thing in the morning,nice fresh air, and i occasionally have a bit of wind after a good night out, i have to wipe the top of the roof so i dont get it all over me leg when i go out my turning.

Crikey! Thats not wind mate - that is a serious follow though! Do you use a scraper or pressure washer?

And whats is the point of having a built in stopwatch.

Yeah, its useless too
I sometimes use it to see how much time it takes between tym places,
and once I used it to see how fast my car gets from 0 to 60mph, it took it around 9.2 seconds ( good ?? )

1 I had this down as extra security. Stereo won't come out without moving the gear lever, and is visually obvious looking through the window so less likely to break in.
2 might have a point there, catera has two under the arm rest that pop out over the hand brake.
3 never bothered me tbh
4 mine goes off the moment you Jack it up or leave a window open, which is good I thought....?
5 Stick a new battery in it, mine works from about 10 meters, must try the spare actually.

5 stop tryin to be clever by blipping your alarm through your legs from the other side of the car park.......or doing the james bond! ;D
(All is said in jest of course ;))

I hate it when you have the front windows open on a nice day and you use the screen wash and as the wiper sweeps, it sweeps it right in the window!
Or when the window is closed it causes that thin line of water on your side window just about eye level,then it dries and leaves a 'dirty' line on the window >:(

hahahahaha @ some of the posts !!
;D ;D

I suppose if you call the cut outs in the front door pockets of my Astra a 'cup holder' ... you could stand a can of pop/juice in there ... then this is the first car I've ever owned with cup holders. I can't say I've ever missed them or wished I'd had them. I can't see what the fixation is with them :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/
