Lovely!

Am I the only person in the world who PREFERS the cloth seats to leather?

The optional leather/alcantara buckets are quite nice but no way worth £3k, imo.

Do the 'normal' leather seats in the 'R' come with the white stitching?

Yes (well grey stitching):

Im with you on both accounts, both the leather and Recaro´s seem below in quality compared to other manufactors, could be pictures from pre-production cars i guess...

Thanks for the pic. Think I still prefer the cloth seats! It just looks better, imo.

Have had leather before and it annoys me in the summer (sweaty ar5e) and the winter, despite heated seats.

The more reviews and pics I see of the R, the more I find myself wanting one and actually starting to justify spending £25K plus my existing car to have one...................

I daren't go and test drive it in case I do something silly like put a deposit down

I'm thinking 5 door, DSG, steel grey, 19" silver wheels, cloth, dynaudio, RNS510, park sensor and rear camera. Mmmmmmmmm......

me like  . but I specced mine up and it came in at 41k.

I reckon the black wheels would look good with Steel Grey. Check out this white one with black wheels:

I'm with you mate. Love the cloth seats, loved them in my mk5 gti 3yrs ago also

I love the white with black wheels.  I just wish I didn't have the sense not to order a white car (if that makes any sense?!)

OOOhh... I look forward to hearing how it compares with yours. Probably not as fast but being able to nail it at any given time should make it a great base to get Hurdy'd!
