Well...I figured I'd start of a different type of thread. I love my xkr..I think its sexy as all hell , sounds great..And well...LOVE IT...But there is one thing that annoys the crap out of me. My contribution to the thread.
1) It seems somehow I mysteriously manage to open my trunk and or gas cap filler lid. I don't know how...But it keeps happening. I figured maybe I was hitting the alarm button but my gas cap lid???? uggg...

On the XK8, that if you fold the seat forward to let somebody in the back, then press the slide forward button, it will attempt to break your dashboard off its mountings with the headrest, and the motor is powerful enough to make it at least start to move before you notice.
It's really irritating because when I'm using the back, it's usually done by somebody who doesn't know the car.

I would agree with the earlier posters, knee hitting trunk or gas cap buttons and the keys dangling on my leg.

Never could quite get enough leg room, always felt a little cramped, keys hit my knees, turned the wipers on all the time, then a member (and I can't remember the forum members name, I should because he was a fellow Minnesotan, but I do remember his saying he was 6ft 3" tall) posted a modification to the seat mount that added 1 1/2" of legroom.
That man is my hero. No more keys on knees, no more unintended wiper action, and a more comfortable driving position.
