    My climate control has been left on for a good few weeks now, couldn't do without it!:I There's nothing better than pressing a wee button, and by the time you've locked the garage door and shut the drive gates, the car is bloomin' freezin'! Although don't think I could justify spending a fortune retro fitting!:evil:

    I've got the auto and I have it on all the time. Apart from the fact that if you open the window you can't hear your music properly (why bother getting decent ICE and listening to it with the window open?)the air con dehumidifies the air making the inside of the car a much more pleasant place to be. I would never get another car without it. IMHO.:approve:

    And also reduces the amount of nasty pollen getting in, thus reducing problems of visibility following a sneezing fit!!:dead::evil:

    hang on... the auto aircon is mechanically identical to the manual one... you just have to know what to do with your knobs and buttons with the manual one! (oo-err missus)

    As someone says above set the manual to recycle and prepare to freeze! I can testify to this working a treat in 35C heat in Spain this year - the car was like a fridge and I was able to serve chilled drinks from the glovebox.

    I found that in REALLY hot weather the car's performance was quite badly stunted by the auto air con. Mind you, that was the other year when it was 37 down here! Although the car was nice and cool :)

    I couldn't do without it down here.
