quagmire 0 Posted March 17, 2010 I've been offered a full black leather interior at a reasonable price but I was wondering if they are worth the effort? I know they look good but I can't imagine they are too comfortable during the summer months especially with me owning a black car. Any opinions on this?

Super Josh 4 Posted March 17, 2010 LEather seats look great. But unless they are heated in the winter and you have AC in the summer, they are a PITA. Josh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

omega 82 Posted March 17, 2010 depends what you use the car for as well as leather seats are very heavy,but they are easy to keep clean and look good they are also better if you over 14 stone but they dont hold you in as well are they 309 seats? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goliath 94 Posted March 17, 2010 I don't find leather seats a problem in the summer or in the winter, I guess it's just down to personal preference though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars Posted March 17, 2010 If the car is directly in the sun in summer the leather quickly becomes too hot to put bare skin on, so if you're in shorts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marksorrento205 80 Posted March 17, 2010 In my opinion if they are in good condition even if you dont use them they will be a great investment. Im lookieng after a set here for someone, they look the dogs bits and am very tempted myself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pugleyrich 37 1 Cars Posted March 17, 2010 didnt know they made a cti gentry I dont think they did. You can see that the rear cover has been put on the frame of a CTI seat, so there is a bit of excess leather where the normal GTI seats are wider at the top. Would just need swapping back over for a GTI owner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
