Certainly think that the heated function is quicker on my climate seats in the L405 than it was in the L322 (but my memory is failing). Hadn't noticed the warm air rising up onto my face but then maybe i'm too fat.

As for setting seats when reversing? Not recommended really. Agree it is not ideal if you want a low setting for heated seat, it would be less of an issue if the car remembered settings for 15 mins for petrol station stops etc. 2019 D5 HSE Lux SDV6 Indus

Thanks Nick - I had already committed the final build by the time Orbtar had posted and was a little concerned - you've made me less nervous. My build is due late April with delivery in early May - hopefully won't be needing the heated seats then  Geoff

Hi Geoff,

I used my cooled seats today after a very strenuous tennis lesson before having to visit someone in hospital. Did the job beautifully. I haven't noticed anything regarding the warm air (and I'm not fat despite what I said in jest). I'd also point out that you can select zones for the heating too.

What colour combinations have you chosen? I'm loving every moment of my car. 2019 D5 HSE Lux SDV6 Indus

Santorini black with ebony ivory and ebony seats - ivory roof lining and of course the obligatory panoramic roof. Maybe a bit safe but can't afford to make an expensive mistake.

Was going to go ivory seats but plan to keep the car for a few years and worry about staining from jeans etc. my paranoia on marks would spoil ownership - year one ivory would look great but I think by year five I may be glad I chose ebony seats. I have looked at a few one year old cars with very tired looking ivory seats.

Did think about causeway grey with Atlas trim and shadow wheels for exterior - very nice but figured I would be better spending the, nearly, 2k on a panoramic roof, climate seats or ACC - ended up going for all them! Geoff

Interior same as mine. Ebony seats a must if you are going to use it for real life. I've had ivory seats in the past and whilst they look classy they can also look worn very quickly even if they are cleaned.

Giving me more confidence in my choice! I saw the posts of your Fireze RR - if I could have seen one in the flesh or even a good set of pictures I might have gone for that Geoff
