Why are Grey/Cream/Beige Leather Interiors so hard to find for a Mk3?

They are grey. My BMW is cream leather and looks yellow compared to these

Yeah I think your both right actually. Must have got it into my head that they are cream (probably because it sounds nicer  )

Both the pictures you have posted are non GTI seats.

What are they? were they only in VR6's? And is the only difference between the these and the gti ones the stitching across the middle of them?

I know yeah it's just more the door card issue. Although I might consider it in the future if I cant find a set

They look grey to me as well and as Wayne mentions, they don't look like the bolsters are deep enough to be GTI seats therefor more likely from a GL.

That is correct, they were only an option on GL's with dragen green paint, VR's  and GTI's never got them so they are standard seats.

They weren't only an option on Dragon green mk3's, mine came from a lightish metallic blue GL, very similar to the OP's car.  It had only done 30k miles, so the seats are in great condition!

As mentioned, the bolsters on the back section are ever so slightly smaller than my old GTI seats, but the bolsters on the seat section actually seem a little bigger, certainly more huggable/holdable.

They are indeed grey, but a very light shade of.

Cheers for the responses so far guys 

Does anyone have are 5-door Cream Leather interior which they are selling? Or know anybody who is?, let me know .

Also, does anyone have any idea as to how much it would cost to get mk3 seats and door cards re-trimmed in cream leather... i'm guessing it would cost a lot more than it is worth, but thought I may aswell ask anyway 

Stevens vw are a 20 minute drive from me mate, if you would like, i can always look at a set they have for you an take more photo's for you, I hate having to use them, but they kinda have you buy the nuts & they know it.....  lemme know
