Hi

I am just about to paid my deposit for my new RS,

But.... I have some worries/questions

Are the bucket seats going to kill me?

Are the bucket seat adjustable for comfort?

Are they electronically adjustable?

Will there been interior light (i.e. Like in my ST3)?

Will there be door sill lighting?

I have a fully load MK3 ST3 14plate and although I love the thought of the power don't want to lose my mod cons.

Thanks

    The pre production RS seems to have ambient lighting so even if illuminated plates aren't standard they can be added easy enough.

    The only options it looks like you can't have over an ST is driver assistance pack and heated seats.

    Not sure what seats come as standard I don't quite understand what the 1k recaro shell seat option is.

    Maybe its the plastic moulded hard back for the seats. Id rather have it covered in fabric or leather myself although it would be easier to keep clean if you have children in the back.

    Anyone had the mk2 and can share there experiences with the bucket seats?
