the reverse wing mirror down function is kind of cool and auto lights function is cool too

I’ll second that, saved my alloys no end of times!

Not standard though is it? I don't have it!  :confused:

Im sure you have to have your mirror adjuster in the 'L' position then once in reverse the mirror dips toward the kerb. Must admit I've never tried it so will check it out later.

....

I'm surprised that so many favour the steering wheel but in fact, you're all right - It's the main tactile interface and it is a superb wheel, especially with carbon paddle extensions :evilgrin:

I don't see why DSG can't be voted for - It's a factory feature.

Lux pack also had folding mirrors and puddle lights (underneath the mirrors)
Reverse activated kerb-view rear adjustment on passenger's door mirror and rear reading lights.

So it's an extra... :happy2:
Cheers,

I like the damped glovebox lid, the damped grab handles.

But I really like the cup holder and the way the bottle opener "ratchets" in its slot to secure the cup.

I like the car!

^^^^ It was also standard on the very early Mk5 GTI, my 05 plate one had it as standard and I speced it as part of the Lux pack on my ED30  :happy2:

....Crikey! How often do you use the glovebox? Or do you keep a loaded gun fitted with a silencer in there!? :surprised:

I'd say the auto lights but by far the best is the remote window thing  :happy2:
