Type 44 cabin ventilation (lack of)

[Kneale Brownson]

I believe "econ" setting gives you ourtide air through the dash vents (not 
at foot level) on most Type 44's.  If your climate control temperature 
setting is at "low", it should be unheated outside air.  If your CC temp 
setting is anything much higher than outside temperature, you get heated 
outside air.  I think the cabin vents partly through the vents in the rear 
quarter panels below the plastic bumper cover.  If you have the trunk 
loaded with stuff, it may be cutting down on air flow.
