Optional rear refrigerator – A rare option on Mk1 top-spec models was a small refrigerator hidden behind the rear centre armrest. It provided chilled storage for drinks or snacks and was used on state limousines. If your car has this option, make sure to keep the vent clear so the fridge can cool effectively.
