Tamworth Audi, by any chance?miatang wrote:My local dealer had a b8 with the bucket seats in today. After seeing them I definitely think it's a must now. The car was a 52 plate wit 11k on the clock and there wasn't much wear on them.
I think it's man maths time

Re: Bucket Seats
Yes it was Tamworth
Know the car?
Could possibly be a launch but the plate had Tonbridge audi on it, so possibly their ex demo

Re: Bucket Seats
No I dont, but when I was first looking before Xmas they offered me a 62 plate with buckets that they had coming in as a p/x in the new year. Buckets on early cars is rare so I took a punt that it might be the same car.miatang wrote:Yes it was Tamworth![]()

Re: Bucket Seats
Check the back to see it the leather is lifting around the plastic back plate.

Re: Bucket Seats
The seats are manual except for the lumber support. The leather around the back plate looked ok. No scratch marks around or on the plastics. I think I would have been interested if it wasn't in black
Re: Bucket Seats
You might also render the memory seat function on your driver's door handle useless if you have the sports seat originally and subsequently install the bucket seats later on. I think it would bug me endlessly.
