Doors slow? - no - YOU are slow to understand that you click the door control BEFORE you get to the car; then the open door welcomes you and you get straight in. Believe me - sliding doors are great (our family has three 1007's).

as every 1007 owner knows, the doors can be opened remotely simply by pressing the remote button when you are a few paces away. The doors will be open by the time you get there. As for closing; presumably you put a safety belt on? The doors are closed by the time you have done this.
You must be desperate to find faults…

How totally right Doug - I sold my flappy-door cars (a Jaguar and a big BMW) once the 1007 bug had bitten and, with my wife, now enjoy three of them. Five years on and the best decision I ever made. Not only far cheaper to run with no expensive noises but they have tardis-like room inside; I’ve never been so…
