What about half leather  :smug:

Maybe, only looked at these as to be honest as my interior isnt wearing too well. Only 7000 miles (mainly sunday driving :laugh:) and already a little wear on the drivers seat bolster. Also the cloth on the door card looks poor.

Hi Sunday. Don't know your name or where Smogland is? Why so secretive?

Anyway, if you can get those Recaros in leather at a good price and if the leather on them is still tight and not shiny, you should seriously consider it.

But just to be a devils advocate, you can have your whole interior leathered (including your headling, door cards, centre armrest etc) in the colour of your choice for £1400. The leather will also be of a better quality than the VW one.


No not being secretive, Snoopy will know where smogland is as it's only down the road from him. :smug:

Now I see why you are looking at the leather option. Understandable.
So far, my seats seem ok. I was worried about this too, initially.
The cloth on the door card gets a bit mucky. I have found a damp cloth brings it back to as-new.
