There's a big difference between the Avant and Saloon rear seat so you probably want to get the correct one. There's a complete B3 Saloon leather interior on eBay at the moment, but the rear seats would not fit a B4. It took me 4 years to find a black leather interior for my saloon, they're pretty rare!

Oh really ? I didn't know that , thanks for the heads up. . Can you advise what the differences are please ?
I've been offered black leather and alcantara from a saloon ( same as rs2 design ) but at what I thought was a very high price .

There are loads of differences, nothing will fit without modification. I've only seen an Avant rear fitted to a saloon, but the side bolsters are the wrong shape, the base is split and folds forward rather than fixed, the back rest is shorter and pivots from a different point, the seat belts sit in a different place and at a different angle, even the headrests are different. It's not worth the effort.

Is the one you've been offered a re-trim or factory? I've never seen a half Alcantara saloon interior. Leather saloon interiors are very rare, avant ones are not so much as quite a number of S2s had the option.

Thanks buddy , great info. I had no idea.
I've been told the interior is factory . ( certainly looks is )
