Fair enough, i've only owned small engined cars. Still, it's perfectly normal.

That judder when using heavy electrics is found on every car ever made. I've had it on Fords, on VW's. It's completely normal.

I get quite severe reflections from my dash as well in sunny weather. I just wear sunglasses. Sorted.

Having just replaced my speakers I looked at the old ones. They are crappy Dual Cones that put out just 13.5 Watts of I presume RMS power. I just installed some Alpine 4" ones that are 25w RMS and have a max output of 180w. I'm slightly disappointed for two reasons though. Firstly I had to trim down the grilles in order to get them back on nice and flush. Secondly, the Bass is still poor. But i'm looking at getting an Active sub under the front seat just to give the bass a better sound. However the clarity on these new speakers are superb and I can actually have music that is louder than the engine without distortion. In comparison my new Alpines weighed a ton compared with the stock speakers.

Hi, newbie here! Sorry to disappoint, but the VED on the C1 will be £20 in 2010, not free as stated. If you look here: - http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/road-tax/?deriv=31501 You will see it says from April 2010 it is "free", but that is in fact the new car fee that the ZanuLabour party have brought in, i.e you buy a fat 4x4 and you pay a premium £800 just for the car in tax. If you look to the left of that figure, you will see that for 12 months, the VED is still £20. Not that I am complaining £20 is bloody marvellous. :D
