must admit the seat interiors are shocking.  its a shame really cos they did such a good job with the exterior design.

I agree with the centre part of the dash being poor, but the seats are better than those found in the GTi/Edition 30. Burberry anyone?!  :signLOL:

I like the clocks and other things too for what its worth. Each to their own though.

don't agree about the seats, love the gti/ed30 look and they are the most comfortable and supportive seats I've ever sat in!

I have to agree that the seats in the ED30 are fantastic, very supportive and extremely comfortable! I have to disagree with the burberry comment to, I love the print and think it really finishes off the interior!  :drool:

i love my cupra seats they are soooo much more comfortable than Golfs and A3's, my 140td golf had the full leather and i sold that because of back pain, the A3, well they were reallt saggy. The Leon doesn't use the best plastics on the door panels but its put together well and doesn't creak unlike my golf did. Don't the loweer boulsters on the ED30 sag over time ?

The audi TT seats have a sagging issue, the cupras are atleast durable!
