Hi

still planning to trade in our coupe/cabrio in the spring in favour of an auto Octy (husband broke left leg pretty badly in a motorbike accident).

we looked at a fine example today but i'm being a real girl about colour combinations. it was metallic black with tan leather interior. not so keen on the tan, what other combinations were available on e.g. 52/03/53 plates?

a quick online search hasn't presented me with any pdf brochures to compare against, any guidance would be much appreciated. ta!

Interiors are either tan or black.

There should be plenty of black interiored cars in every colour

Well, it's more dark grey than black (not vRS, which usually has pale grey carpets and seat inserts).

the vrs interior looks lovely, do they do an auto?

thanks for advice re black vs tan. has anyone been able to find any previous model year brochures online anywhere? it would give me an idea of standard / optional spec while i'm hunting.

thanks again.

This post has just reminded me of a comment my dear wife made some years ago on a dealers forecourt.

We were having a look at a few used cars and we came across a metallic dark green octy with a sort of tan interior. In theory this should look ok with dark green body but this tan has a sort of mustard tone to it and she descibed it as looking like the colour of "baby poo", she has a way with words!

the sales chappie thought it was funny anyway
