Well yeah, I genuinely cannot believe that cruise isn't a common option, if not standard. Bizarre.
Loads of room in there Will, you'd fit easy mate.
I don't like the wheels either, I did mention about swapping them which they would do, or powdercoat a different colour. They're fine in black, oddly.
Forgot to mention that the paddles are on the column not the wheel, which seemed very strange in usage. Couple of times I went for a gear and had to take my hands off the wheel to grab a paddle. I'm sure you'd get used to it, but I definitely prefer having them wheel-mounted. Odd how they talk up the 458 as being closely related to an F1 car, when the F1 car has them on the steering wheel!
