Just found out
« on: 26 May 2017, 13:30:42 »

That my bog standard astra, as well as having cruise and front and rear PDC, has the open/close window facility with a long press of the fob button. Not bad for the base model.

The mighty Signum has that as does just about anything else with four wheels.

My windows lower slightly when you press the remote to open the car, being a pillar-less coupe  8)

One press = drivers only, two presses = all doors

Focus CC has the window "drop" I remember back in [was it 2009 or '10 when we had that really bad winter with heavy snow?]I couldn't get into one as the windows had frozen to the seals and wouldn't drop so the door couldn't be opened! :D

The Focus CC was just a bad car all round really. They really skimped on the folding roof - it's one section too few which puts a lot of stress on the seals which then leak when the car is out of warranty!

Volvo certainly got the better deal out of that arrangement...
The C70 is timeless by comparison ;)
