Is this normal....

one of my mates has one, and i noticed that the doors opened heaps far too... maybe its a feature so you got more room when piling people into the back over the seat...

i think its normal from memory.

worse thing about it, is the fact that it has really big doors so they stick out really far.

I've got a 2000 and it does the same darn thing. I've gotten use to sticking my foot out as I open the door to catch it. You might want to consider door edging so it doesn't scratch someone else if you don't catch it in time.

Yup, i just checked my specho; they open wide too. I remember the salesman at the yard saying the reason being was for those with wheelchairs can get good access into the car, and, of course, for large posteriors...
