Thoughts on your CC

**antman** · 17-09-2009, 05:30 PM

Sorry folks, I've been offline. I'll get some Pics of the sunroof and post them on the weekend.

Cost of the sunroof was $1,800 fitted.

BTW, when I said "Lane Assist" I actually meant to say "Blind Spot Assist".
(As much as I hate to say it, but Volvo seems to have a good Blind Spot Assist system).

Given my experience with ACC there's no way I would have Lane Assist.

Thanks for your reply Antman. Looking forward to see what the sunroof looks like. I agree about the ride being fantastic in the CC though I did not drive the R36 to compare. I agree that a blind spot assist function (as opposed to lane assist) could prove useful. Shame the Adaptive CC does not work well. Maybe it takes time getting used to? BTW have you ever wish for 5 seats since you bought it?

Nope. I can only recall 1 occasion where I have used 5 seats in the last few years.

Actually I recently sat in a friend's unrestored 1968 Falcon and was quickly reminded how - at one time - 6 seats rather than 5 seats were the norm. We adapted then so I guess 4 seats shouldn't be a problem.

The only complaint with the CC that I have though is that given there is room there for a middle passenger, the temptation might loom large at that odd once in a moon occasion to seat a passenger there.

BTW I have a V6 CC on order now Antman, skipped the panaromic roof and thank you for your photos of the sunroof. I reckon it looks great too. Ok, it might not look as trendy as the OEM roof, but at least it slides open to let some fresh air in! Doesn't look like it takes too much headroom either (does it?) I ticked just about every other option box too except the adaptive cruise.
