What is booklet hanging from rear seat? I didn't get one

Noticed on lots of owners photos a booklet hanging from the rear seat headrest, I didn't get one with my car and wondered what it says? am I missing out on some amazing info? Smile

Also I have noticed a space in the foam under the floor of the boot where the spare wheel is that looks like it should have a towing eye that would attach to the front or back for when it breaks down, but again mine has nothing - unless I have a special model that doesn't break down!

One last trivial thing is my owners manual is in a Blue coloured wallet, thought it would be black

What did you get with yours?

My owners' wallet is blue too, it doesn't have any significance, so long as it fits into the special slot in the glove box

The towing eyes are permanently fitted to the car - front one under the front spoiler, behind the plastic finisher and behind a panel on the rear offside corner , if a Dynamic then you remove the offside exhaust trim panel. Instruction manual page 216 refers

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Yeah I found that it was real tight fit, only asked as the dealer had several cars all going out on the same day and thought they may muddle them up - as when I called my insurance my private number plate is shown as being assigned to a blue FFRR not a red Evoque! I called the dealer and he assured me there is no way it could be mixed up EVEN though they had a brand new blue FFRR being picked up the same day.

Must be the lady on the phone at the insurance company was psychic and she saw the blue FFRR on the forecourt via special vision powers that she has and got a bit confused!

My hand book wallet is blue with Stratstone stamped on it, and I still have the tag on the back seat as I am never in the back to take it off.

I hope you are invoicing Stratstone for the advertising J. Did they also put their sticker on the rear window? I noticed the other day that the local Fiat dealer here are putting their stickers directly onto body panels.............. I would go ballistic if my car appeared with their badge pop riveted on the back or with a transfer on the paintwork..............
