    Ejector seat in case of a crash. But don't push it unless the sunroofs open.

    No, didn't try that yet.

    My car is bit of an odd one. Its got a linea terra badge (which I thought was the lower spec) but it has alloys and whatnot.

    The alloys on it aren't original Toyota ones, they were added afterwards.

    They've just got centre caps thst say Toyota, but they aren't Toyota parts from what I can tell.

    That's one of the newest old model 3 doors out there I'd say.
