    To be honest, i've not found a difference between projectors and Xenons. Only the cool flick thing it does when you turn them on

    Mine is not an SE. but does have rear blind, heated leather/alcantra seats and brg carpets. + a 2din dvd satnav thing. the only thing that i thought was a bit of a downer when i looked at the car was wind up rear windows, where my non SE 180+ auto has full single touch electric. so i did not know that was not standard. However I don't sit in the back so no longer care. So I guess my view is less stuff to go wrong. You can also uprate if you want to (electric seats etc). ebay is great for this.

    I have a non-SE but came with Apex and Sunroof. Have since added alcantara seats and have an electric sun blind waiting to be fitted.

    I think the only other thing I would like would be cruise control (although car came with steering wheel cruise buttons?) but I do believe it could be retro fitted by someone like Conrad Anderson and would utilise the OE switches. But then I don't think it's the type of car that would suit cruise control, I think it begs to be "driven"

    Cruise control is good for the long distance boring motorway driving. Trying to have fun with the car on the M-roads can win you lots of lovely points and journeys by bus . The CC helps limit the use of the heavy right foot

    Technically my car is 100kg lighter.... you would have to pay a few tens of thousands to get that kinda of weight reduction in a Ferrari or Lambo...


    haha

    I'm pretty sure they would weigh almost the same. No idea where that 100kg value came from. Maybe SEs came with a tank of fuel...
