No the seats as well. The m sport has black/blue stitching and piping I think.

Don't you guys get the sport seats with the m sport package? These are the standard seats.

Can I ask how they put the front number plate on? I dont like the look when they put a surround on it as it puts the number plate lower than the lower end of the bumper. I asked them to stick it on without a surround but they seem very reluctant

Interesting one this! The M-Sport comes with a plinth but the SE doesn't. They normally use a dealer surround but couldn't in my case as they reckoned thesurround could interfere with the radar for the dynamic cruise. So they just stuck it on with double sided sticky strips. Wasn't easy though and they had to use a fair few strips as the bumper has a concave surface. But it worked out fine.

Thank you very much.

Nice car man. Enjoy it !

Lovely car. I have also gone for Cognac interior on an SE. I see you have 17 inch wheels (the upgrade ones I believe). Did this mean you were forced to have the space saver tyre? If so did it eat much into the boot space?

No spare at all I'm afraid. Just a repair kit.

MNC8395 · 03-29-2017, 01:28 AM

Thanks, I prefer that as I do not want the silly boot build thing. Just a few questions if you do not mind? So your tyres are not run flats then? Where do they put the repair kit? Does the Irish configurator tool allow you to uncheck the space saver spare option? In the UK website the tool requires you to chose 18 inch wheels with run flats every time you uncheck the space saver option, i.e the space saver is checked by default for 17 inch wheels.
