A few points:

I sure like the red tool box back at the spare.

Anyone up for a locking gas cap mod project?

46.5 mpg with the 2 liter at 56mph - Note that those are British imperial gallons but still very impressive.

"The EECIV is quite probably the most advanced electronic engine management in the world, It could, if you asked it nicely, store of 200 pages of a standard collegiate dictionary..." - Thanks EECIV Chief.
Reminds me of Hammer in Iron Man II. "If it were any smarter it would write a book, a book that would make Ulysses look like it was written in Crayon...It would read it to you."

"Manual" Sunroof on the lower spec cars?

"Sevoian Crushed Velour" Where is Sevioa? Is that near Corinthia?

I like how they painted all the suspension components along with the camera views as they were driving.

Hey fellow Scorpio owners - Are your downward facing door curb lights working?

The Euro Scorpio had adjustable top mount seat belts. US regulations must have nixed that.

"Athos uncrushed Velor" Athos must be near Sevoia.

No mention of Connoly leather.
