Has anyone had this option? Is it worth the money? Any opinions gratefully received.

Yep - got it. I've not driven one extensively without it so can't say for definite that it makes a huge difference. If you are going to drive the car frequently and for long periods of time then any adjustments that can make you more comfortable are worth it - especially at this price.

OK I have amended my order and added it. Seams a good idea as I used to get back ache in my TT on long journeys!

Not sure how many people have taken this option - when mine was delivered to the dealers before collection they couldn't find the switch to test them!

BTW it's on the front of the leading seat squab - if you reach between your legs ( ) down the front of the seats the switch is there.

I wish I'd have asked for a custom seat fitting - I reckon that they could build up the foam on the sides of the seat for better lateral support - as they manufacture the seats in-house it probably wouldn't have costed much.

You've taken some time on your spec up until now - where are you up to and what have you chosen?

I know it’s been a slow process but of my own making, I asked for my order to be delayed.

Here is the final spec:

Tamora: Halcyon Midas Pearl (see it here www.sleepy-fish.com/images/FactoryTour12Mar2004/DSCF0027.JPG )
Interior: Full Leather: Predominantly black with yellow side panels and half dash

Extras:
sprayed seat backs
Double height cushions x2 (we are both vertically challenged)
Air conditioning
18" Wheels
Lumbar supports
Engine Upgrade
Exhaust Upgrade
Brake Upgrade

Audio & Other bits
Replacing the head with another unit and adding up rated rear speakers and front tweeters. Also putting in an origin b2 device

Charger and conditioner and leven badge and leven fuel cap and that’s the lot, apart from a cover.

We have gone a bit crazy I guess, but you only live once.

Its not due until mid May as we have a few issues with the construction of its home (i.e. our garage) so I am in no rush!

regards

Simon
