If he's getting old, he'll want a smaller engine, travelling at 30 everywhere except motorways and then only 57 on the motorway (its better for economy don't you know)

and a good choice of seat they are, they're are a little firmer than the mk1 seats which I used to find getting a bit uncomfitable after a few hours, the alcantara don't bother me, even on a 4 hour stint.

Alcantara will hold you in better than slippey leather or the galaxy's yacht captin seats, I know as I've tried both (well, Espace in the latter case).

Found them really good actually .... Do like leather -
But seriously - the side bolsters and evrything about them made them a huge improvement over what I had.

Swivel seats, Do behave!
Full leather is nice, had them in the Calibra and were heated too. £120 is a good price to me.

It was an absolute steal - they didn't know thier true value to be honest and one wouldn't recline so I had to butcher the seat coming out for the mechanism, but they were mint when cleaned up.
