Many go on about the coloured strip on the dashboard (absolutely adore it), the petrol filler cap (such a high quality item), the rear lights, headlights cover shape and exterior door handles but for me there's another I've never seen the press pick upon. And it really sums up the attention to detail in the design. That feature is the body colour underline little strip which is part of the B-pillar badge, just amazing someone thought to create it. Hence the Avatars are all coloured too!

And another thing I've noticed when cleaning the windows, realised the rear side windows seem to be made of claer plastic/perspex. Or am I imagining that's the case?

Rear side windows are glass in my experience!

Perhaps an investigation under the rear 3/4 panels will reveal an aftermarket replacement and corresponding reseal...

I think the two "slashes" in the bodywork, make people forget about the other features!

That and the "pert" headlight design!

The mirrors. The size, shape and strip on the back. And when looking in them, the upper feature line of the haunches.
