able to undertake long drives in comfort. Able to enter/leave car without being contortionist. Easy copes with my (very) large body frame. see full Acura TSX review |

Why doesn't this vehicle have heated front seats (they only cost a tenner or so at manufacturing time) and why doesn't it have electric front seats with memory (it is particularly annoying to have to try and reset the seat after the garage has had the car and adjusted it to their liking)! Again electric front seats don;t really cost anything much to build in. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |
