1. Sunroof. Had one in one car - would never have another. A total waste of time in my opinion. Does nothing for cooling the car, just open a window. Expensive and possibly problematic.

2. CHIILLI is OK value "if" you want sports seats and 16" alloys. If you don't, go for PEPPER.

3. MFSW - yes, good value.

4. Not for me, manual works fine. If anything people probably fiddle just as much with auto as manual.

On the diesel, it may be more sluggish off the line but it will be a lot faster on in gear acceleration. Big premium if you don't do a lot of miles though.
