Title: Should i be put off by the interior?
Post by: ksab on 19 February 2014, 22:43

I quite like this Golf GTI but for some reason i am put of by the interior seats. They don't look like the Recaro's i wanted. Should i let this bother me and whats your thoughts on the car?

My thoughts too. Pic 11 shows the sport seats. Pic 7 (the one above) I have no idea what seats.

Oh yeah you're right. How the hell did I not see that. So it does have the sports seats after all. God knows what is going on with picture 7.

They still aren't recaros though, the 'sports' seats are rubbish in comparison to recaros.

Pic 7 looks like from a mazda  :lipsrsealed:

It has the recaro style sport seats. And yh there crap. Have them in my mk4. You can get a set of recaros easily and throw them in :wink:

I disagree with that. Prefer current car with reactors. However wouldn't say no to a car with out recaros.

Side bolsters are a little bigger. But I still found my sport seats just as comfy. Some people have even said to me they think the sports seats were comfier...

Recaro's for the MK4 are the comfiest seats I have ever sat in.  Found them a massive improvement over the sports seats

I love my recaros but if the car was right for me the fact it doesn't have them wouldn't make me not buy it. You can always spend 200quid on some cloth recaros and swap them over if you feel like it.

As you haven't got the recaros ATM anyway you don't know what you're missing either so if you like the car buy it, if you don't then keep looking.
