The one feature you would take forward to every car

Boring answer but the hill assist brake from my old Subarus. Great for crawling traffic up a hill, come to a halt and take foot off brake. It stays engaged until you reach biting point again on the clutch.
When your commute involves mini roundabouts at the top of steep hills this is so much nicer than having to constantly put the handbrake on/off.

Silf-dimming rear view mirror, cruise/climate control, heated front window and seats, and electric drivers seat.
Had a Focus Mk3 with all those, was a very comfortable car, and save for perhaps the heated/electric seats id be willing to pay for all those options on a new car.
Current alfa has cruise/climate, and that is decent enough, could even do without those if need be, but comfort-wise its all very nice kit

Guess we PHers tend to base much of our purchases upon the driving pleasure so we buy cars accordingly. It's almost default that you want a lively engine, sharp handling, etc.
I've read this thread as being about the little extras that wouldn't stop you from buying a specific car but really do make life a bit easier if fitted.
I should also point out that having had two cars with reversing cameras how much I'd love them on every car!

Indeed, I was surprised thats all, being PH id assumed peoples would automatically select noise, handling and styling traits but i guess making driving more pleasurable is equally as important.I've read this thread as being about the little extras that wouldn't stop you from buying a specific car but really do make life a bit easier if fitted.

The thread is about anything really, nice to haves and essentials you've experienced and would take forward to your next car.

Fully keyless: I couldn't go back to fishing in my pocket for a bloody key nowadays.
Adaptive cruise: Pop it on in traffic and let the car do the stop/start crawling crap. Also brillo for average speed cameras, especially in heavy traffic.
Adaptive Cruise, now theres a feature! I used a friends RR sport which had it, fantastic. Adaptive cruise: Pop it on in traffic and let the car do the stop/start crawling crap. Also brillo for average speed cameras, especially in heavy traffic.
