That's true about the owner's manual. When I first sat in my '66, it took me about 20 seconds to work out what the controls did. When I drive my parents Mazda 323, or my brother's Citroen AX, the amount of control knobs, switches, dials, turney things and flashing lights get me confused! To so somehting simple like turn on the windscreen demister, you have to stare at the dashboard for about 10 minutes, turn correct knob and position the slidey thing, then press another button and you get air. In my '66, you simply open the quarterlight :-)

But what do I care about heat? Winter is just around the corner and I plan on putting them both up for the winter within the next week.
