That's because the standard B8 Super Sport seats were a good enough improvement over the previous generation B7 Comfort Seats. So most didn't spec the bucket seat option.

I miss the B7's hydraulic steering, far more than I do bucket seats.

Yup. Hate the colour. Not bold enough to be daring, not interesting enough to be sophisticated.

I'm more than happy with the B7 at the moment, perhaps I'll be tempted in a year or so. If I were a dealer, I would have stayed well away from that colour. I think he'll have that on the forecourt for some time. Unless somehow it looks amazing in the flesh.....which I doubt.
