Front centre armrest, I took mine out

I took mine out within 2 weeks of buying the car. It felt odd engaging gear(on an auto) and was really annoying when one wanted to open the centre cubbyhole and hold it open whilst get things out. It was probably made worse by the wood trim on the centre cubby hole. I think it would have been better if it was higher (may be my arms and elbows weren't long enough? It also rocked about as the bolts had come loose. So I removed it. Its in the same room as me now waiting to go up to the loft. There isn't any wear from rubbing against the seats, and there is no wear on the edges of the leather seats either. The colour match with the light grey seats is good.
Its not really a Brit thing even on the motorways, although I have enjoyed centre armrests whilst driving in Canada and the US.
