Speaking of seatbelts, mine doesn't retract itself and I usually have to feed it the first couple of inches. Really annoying because if you leave it, it'll get stuck in the door. Even my poverty spec 206 was better in this respect, especially since it also had black belts
How did they do this? I hate the cold start. If I get chance I always warm it up before setting off. Big gripe lol^^^
Not sure on purely "throttle response", but with the cold map, the kangarooing issues some suffer and the general pedal / engine reaction at times: from standard mine was for sure the worst 'fuelling' car as standard i have ever owned.
Thankfully Engine Dynamics magic improved all these issues by 200%.
TBH - if it wasnt able to be sorted....im not sure i could have lived with it as it arrived with me.......

It won't get spanked first off cos it simply won't and yes its wrong to try. My 172 however didn't have the cold start problem. I love it when the gage rises and it's ready for itTo be fair, we should all do this really. It's never going to do any harm to take it easy until everything is up to temperature. It certainly builds in a good safety zone that stops you getting in a spanking it straight from the off!

Still a pricey thing to do though eh. Maybe not looking at extra bhp but fix the cold start? I'll just continue to leave the house/work a few minute's early'Simple' re-map....done for performance after fitting manifold, exhaust etc.
The cold start issues etc being sorted is some bonus though !!

Door handle being FAR too close to the hinge.
Spot on with that! Pretty sure I've almost pulled the plastic trim off the door handle before with the force needed to close it haha
Ha, absolutely mate, it's a very poor bit of design indeed.
There is a fix that I've been toying with but my DIY skills are pretty thin on the ground...
