Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal matter: height, build and the distance people like to keep between themselves and the wheel all vary, so drivers sharing one car often settle on noticeably different arrangements.
Safety and Driver Assistance
It is worth locating the hazard lights, demisting and headlamp controls before setting off, especially in a car that is still unfamiliar. Sorting that out while parked keeps any later adjustment brief.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone leant on for navigation drains steadily through a long day. Where a suitable power source and cable are to hand, topping it up while travelling means arriving without a flat battery.
