Love it Dave,
just out of interest did you try or see many with buckets, i know of the sprint blue but any others?
They can be a pain getting in and out in a RS4 wondered what it would be like in a R8.

There is a Daytona on on pistonheads with full mustang leather including buckets.

Tbf, the R8 seats are pretty good anyway!

The TT has R8 seats or the R8 has TT seats?

I hope it's the former!
