Urgh, do all GT Lines have leather seats? Yuck. What is the obsession people have thinking leather is luxurious and premium? It's awful - hot in the summer, cold in the winter, and smells dreadful. Velour is the best seat material ever invented, but nobody wants it. Perverse.
It's only 'leather' on the sides. The middle sections are some kind of recycled material IIRC. The 'leather' wears better and looks better IMO.The Rotrex Kid said:

Play, Iconic, S-Edition, Gt-Line, when the ADAS camera was removed the range became Iconic, SE-Edition, Gt-Line +.
All bar Play have sat nav, CCS became standard on Gt-Line +, optional on Iconic S/SE-Edition and Gt-Line. 110 on Iconic 110/135 on S/SE-Edition, 135 Gt-Line and Gt-Line +.
About this time last year the range as re-jigged yet again, specification names were changed to "allign with the rest of Europe" Techno with optional CCS (I think all 135), Iconic became top spec with standard CCS and 135 motor. Where it gets more pointless and "why the f
k did they do that" core equipment level on both Techno and Iconic were identical, only differences being, CCS standard on GT-Line, larger and darker alloys and weird gold detailing, apart from that, no differences.
Dealers pleaded for 1 high spec ZOE to simplify things, good offers and pricing, of course what did we know!
There are likely to be other minor changes along the line but the above pretty much covers it, I think the ADAS radar reappeared at some point but the naming remained as if they didn't have it, go figure.
Ref if a car has CCS or not, if you can get a look at the charging port, whether a photo or physically, if the CCS bit at the bottom has two "++" moulded into the cover, it doesn't have CCS charging.
What year did the battery lease get dropped? I think a non lease one could be my next car very soon.All bar Play have sat nav, CCS became standard on Gt-Line +, optional on Iconic S/SE-Edition and Gt-Line. 110 on Iconic 110/135 on S/SE-Edition, 135 Gt-Line and Gt-Line +.

See if you can find a 2020 GT line R135 with winter pack/BOSE pack. That’s a good VFM buy.

One of my colleagues also went through a phase, when CCS was an option across all specs, of charging for CCS on a CCS equipped car.

Also with the incoming gov probably likely to have a go at ice vehicles, thinking it might might be wise to go electric later this year whilst I have some decent value in the Clio, and (engine apart) the Clio is a nice place to be, so I imagine the zoe aint a lot different.

I remember an older guy and his wife ordering a Gt-Line, he asked my advice on options, I said a winter pack (heated seats and steering wheel) was a definate so he went ahead with the car and Winter Pack, I only realised on handover day it was ordered without the Winter Pack, he never noticed!
One of my colleagues also went through a phase, when CCS was an option across all specs, of charging for CCS on a CCS equipped car.
Not too fussed on spec, I do prefer the GT LINE for looks and the darker interior though. All I really want is a DAB radio, electric windows, aircon and remote locking.One of my colleagues also went through a phase, when CCS was an option across all specs, of charging for CCS on a CCS equipped car.

I would recommend heated seats too if you are likely to be using it near the limit of its range. It’s more efficient to heat you directly than heating the air in the car. HughG said:
