Nice wagon...you'll have to take some pics for us in the USA.  We were cruelly deprived of any 5-doors here.


When she is reg'd and respectable looking, I will do so.  Just picked up a 17-40L f/4, and i've been itching to go out and shoot.

That's your gong :D  It does exactly what you just said.  I think it also reminds you when your keys are still in the ignition and the door is open.  Unfortunately it doesn't warn you when your lights are still on (or at least mine doesn't)
