But look at all the fun you could have on the panda forum! You're opinion is always relevant, just not required or appropriate
:devil:
It does if you get the black stripes and the rear privacy glass. lol.

Maxi just sounds strange Updated spec
1.2 Sport
16" Multispokes
split fold rear seats
climate control
fixed glass sunroof
side rubbing strip with 500 logo in chrome
it's a real pity that they don't do the lounge with sports seats or at least just black, could have saved myself £450 but not to worry. It's all about getting the spec you want I suppose
Should have gone for a Lounge with black leather, your roof would have been free then and the leather cost would have been offset considerably

The leather seats are based on the sports ones, coz I have them in red, they are better than the standard lounge ones. I liked the pop seats but I wanted the lounge spec, so opted for the leather ones.

What about 306? .... or Dan?:chin:
Another £250 and you could have had the leather sports seats! The trouble is a few quid here and some more there and it starts getting expensive. At least you'll get £2000 off which is something previous owners missed out on.
The black leather does look stunning too, much nicer than the std sports seats... quick ring them up and change it

Grrrr. OK I've called up and am going to go for a lounge - climate but with black leather. Hopefully no changes now.....The black leather does look stunning too, much nicer than the std sports seats... quick ring them up and change it
Now thats better, you wont regret having the Lounge as its much nicer I take it your having a black dashboard still?
I take it your having a black dashboard still?Black leather? The red looks stunning, and unusual. Every other car has black leather, but red is rare, and gorgeous.

Certainly. Just don't like the ivory ambience, looks ugly imho though I can understand why people would go for it. I'm going to go for the red actually as I feel the car needs a bit of colour to it. It's even more of a pity they don't do mod blue as my dads 500f is that blue with a red vinyl interior. I'm kicking myself for not taking pictures when I visited.Now thats better, you wont regret having the Lounge as its much nicer
You wont regret getting the red leather, it fits well with the car and is good quality. And of course its personal taste but the ivory ambience does work well with the interior. You do have to watch grubby hands on the ivory steering wheel tho! Horses for courses I guess. Having been in a sport with the black ambience recently I still prefer my ivory. I think its a bit more retro than the black but IIRC you're not really fussed with the retro-ness are u Daniel?

Nope, I'm not a fan of the retroness
Horses for courses though as you say Tbh I'd probably quite like it either way but black just looks that bit better than ivory IMHO.
