With the PW car I didn't want coloured leather, or upholstery (rain etc) and thought that the black leather with black interior would be far too dark. So the pale grey and black leather Rec's won
The Recarro seats didn't end up much more expensive than heated leather ones, so I thought what the heck. They seem a little bit more snug than standard mini sport ones, but are very comfortable for long journeys.
The windscreen is heated by extreamly thin wires in the glass - much much thinner than the ones in the rear window. I have it in a car some 10 years ago, and it is so nice to jump in and press a button instead of scrape ice from the windscreen - also great in freezing fog (if you get such things in the US?).
