....That's exactly what I thought in 2005, but the Recaro option cost nearly £3k if I remember correctly. VW then ended the option in July 07- At least in the UK.

The standard seats are so good that it's not until you start really pushing the car that you begin to think that the Recaros may be desirable. Well, that's not quite right because those sexy Recaros are always desirable just for their eye-candy.

Unless I've missed it, do you have a price for the covers yet RR?
Only 250.1bhp - but with that noise, who cares?

Linky : - Recaro Options Thread

Easily missed, mate. Best discussed in that thread rather than Greenouse's here [I know - Going off topic doesn't usually bother me but that thread is specifically on the subject]

The seats look lovely Nathan, and the Racaro's look half decent too!  :happy2:

They're such a badass seat, and something I think should be either standard or a cheaper option!

Im enjoying the std ED30 seats to be honest. I appreciate fully the gripping properties of the Recaro's but my crumbling spine was beggining to suffer on long journey's. Besides I now have a 1 year old interior in a 3 year old car. All I need to do now is get the Airbags connected. ( can I just point folks to the "Wanted" section )  :ashamed:

Great to meet you Nathan and I have to say, the Fens really aint that special to look at  :grin:

Still having a little smile thinking about your car spinning up an inner wheel at about 90 around a corner on that "Private" bit of road  :wink:
