Mission Control? An inovation? I've had my own personal 'Mission Control" since 1987 when I got married!
I hear ya on this one. Maybe mission control and the passanger could talk to each other and leave us alone.

I remember some late '70's - - early '80's Chrysler products had this exact same thing. A female voice that said things like "your lights are on", "you left your key in the ignition" and, my personal favourite: "your door is ajar". No, my door is NOT a jar! A jar is a glass thing you keep gherkins or pickled eggs in! My door is a DOOR, DAMMIT!! SHUT UP!!


Sorry. I got a little carried away.

Like owning and driving an '82 Cordoba wasn't bad enough - it had to incessantly yap at you about everything...

Worst car option, ever. Everybody hated it. Totally useless.

Please MINI - don't do it. Just walk away... we'll pretend it never happened...
