Milenco Grand Aero with the extra long arms, I use them on my 2018.
They have brought out a new version which is beefed up but I had just bought the older style.

My 7 seat has no spare wheel and no storage for one.
The other problem with 7 seats is that the middle row does not fold down flat they just move forward and the back tips forward slightly.

If you have heated/cooled seats they do not have heating elements, they use a Peltier device which heats or cools depending on which way round it is connected.
They are slower to heat up but my 201 ... |

At least our filler is easy to get to. A friend had to top up his Disco Sport and the filler is at the rear of the engine bay beside the bonnet hinge, it took two of us to get stuff into it.

Mine does, even changes when the clocks change and when going into different time zones.
On a Vogue many moons ago there was a menu option to select auto.
