[UK] 306 XSi Leather seats query...

Hi All,

I'm (soon) to be in the market for a 306 XSi. I'm looking for a 2000/01 around the £6000 mark.

Do all XSi's come with leather seats as standard? My problem is that I'd rather have non-leather seats (for personal reasons).

If they do come fitted as standard, how much would they be worth if I wanted to sell them and put the money towards a set of sports (non-leather) seats?

Also, are there any other points to note for the year/spec that I'm after?

Thanks in advance, Al

I believe that leather seats are not standard on XSI's. I think half leather was an option. I have a 97 phase 2 model with standard cloth sports seats. The car was revised again in around 99, T onwards, with a few minor styling changes, whether leather seats became standard here i do not know.

Hope this helps!

Steve.

Right then, any ideas/thoughts on the second part of my query regarding basically "part-ex'ing" the leather seats for alternative - probably sports - seats?

Check out what they go for on Ebay, if indeed there is a market for such things. Maybe try an advert in a boy racer magazine like Lax Flower for a swap. I'm sure someone, indeed several people somwhere, would like to do the opposite of what you do and upgrade the cloth seats in their car to leather ones (if indeed the model you're after has leather).

You could also punt the leather ones in free ads paper and pull some seats out a crashed car in a scrappy?
