Apologies if this is a stupid question, but having worked my way through the configurator and the brochure, and visited my dealer this morning, I'm still confused about the seat trim on the 500 Sport.
The Red 500 1.4 Sport demonstrator had a black half-leather interior that the salesman said was fitted as standard, but there's no mention of half-leather on the configurator (to my eyes the standard Sport trim looks from the photographs to be all cloth - but the £600 leather option looks to be full-leather, not part-leather...)
So - is the salesman right? Does the Sport come with half-leather as standard? Or was the demonstrator I saw a Sport with the black leather upgrade?
If the former, it seems illogical that the upgrade from part- to full-leather on the Sport (just gotta have that red leather interior!) costs the same as the full-leather upgrade for the Pop and the Lounge, which is what I was told.
And a supplementary question - is the driver's seat in the Sport set lower than in the Lounge? I sat in a 1.3 Lounge, and even with the driver's seat at its lowest setting, it still felt too high for my liking, whereas in the Sport it felt a little lower - but I didn't have a tape-measure to hand, and it may just have been a subjective impression rather than an objective fact. Can any of you 500 cognoscenti :worship: on here confirm?
