Other accessories:

Non-Slip Mat

Indoor thermometer

Rain Shield (they actually look really cheap - weak plastic, but strangely enough they work)
Things should serve me, not me them

I mentioned before that I had no problems transporting my golf gear with the the CRV I'd had for 20 years, until I changed for a 23reg Crosstar, in March.

These are the boot tray and rubber mat I bought on-line for about £27 and £10 respectively.



The mat cover the whole of the backs of the rear seats.



My electric trolley isn't much of a problem, as it has its own bag. But the golf bag could have been if I was putting it in the car if it had been raining. There's still plenty of room on the tray for the trolley battery, golf shoes and anything else I might need to carry (like shopping on the way home!)



Both the bag and the trolley are well clear of the backs of the front seats.

Out of interest I looked in Halfords.  Their 2 tonne trolley jack is currently reduced from £40 to £32 and a telescopic wheel brace is half price at £6.25. In addition I got £5 off by signing up to their Motorclub/club card thingie. (I gave an email address I seldom bother checking  ;D )  It fits in the underfloor compartment.  A bit heavier than the scissor jack it replaced.

Thanks for the inspiration Aphybrid

Today I also bought a 48" TV for £549.  Currys currently asking £699.  :o   Relevance to the Jazz?  It fitted nicely in the magic seats space.  The salesman who helped me load it was most impressed     

My IQ test came back negative

I refuse to buy from Currys as they appear very frequently in the Which? magazine and some computer magazines with their shocking after sales service

They frequently try and flout the regulations

I think most people are surprised how much space there is in the Jazz

I took my first backseat passenger the last couple of days and they were amazed how much legroom they had for ‘such a small car’!

Very soon I noticed that the plastic at the bottom of the door gets dirty and scratches easily.

So I solved it cheaply with duct tape.

I find this felt bag very useful for storing loose items in the car.  . Currently £5.79 with free postage on ebay UK

That seems a good idea. It's easy to let your foot brush against the door cards when you get in and out if you can't open the door wide enough.
Another thing I try not to do, is to let my backside brush against the side of the driver's backrest as I get in.

In the past with other cars I've had where I have let that happen a few hundred times, this part of the seat starts to wear.

Talking about seat wear, we had a thread some time ago about the drivers seat plastic breaking down where it met the solid plastic bottom line. Haven't much of that lately?

Bought some screw head caps for a few bucks, they look pretty impressive, but I'm curious if the color will fade over time.

I do like the look of those, but I think it would only fit 3 of our nuts because the anti-theft locking nut is bigger? Still for that price it's a bargain even it it only lasts for a year  ;)

Good point 5thCivic  . Both my mk4's came with official Honda locking wheel nuts.  I dont know if they are standard for the UK market ,or just a freebie from my dealership.  I prefer security to ultimate looks.  (which may also explain why my wheels are not as clean as stani's  :-[   ;D

I like the wheels on my Mk4 Crosstar.
They don't appear to get as dirty as did the alloys on the CRV I had before.

A disadvantage with alloys, is that though I'd never "kerbed" the ones on the CRV I'd had for twenty years, there were several marks on the rims, from when I'd had new tyres fitted, the wheels re-balanced and the weights fitted in different places.
