I was looking at M3's but have recently been looking at these now. The front seats seem different, the drivers has a seam down the middle?

They really are lovely cars, knoware near as fast as an M3 but they go well and sound nice for a diesel.....plus on a recent run to chester the average mpg read 41mpg

There's no seam down the drivers seat, it's the way the light is hitting the seat lol

The pictures are crap, if anyone wants better quality pics or wants to veiw the car, don't hesitate to give me a call

Been looking on the net to see what I can find and by the looks of it all the 06 plated cars have the seam down the middle of the seat's

This is a 2006 car but on a 55 plate therefor doesn't have the seam. Have a look on piston heads, there's a couple of 05 and 55 plated cars with the same interior as our's

The ones with the seam down the middle are ones with nappa leather (this only applies to non M3's)

BMW and other people said they wont fit on the 330 converts. Looks much better with them on!

You got me thinking there mate so I went outside to have a look...they do fit but not 100% so I think I'll take them off ! I'll give them to whoever buys the car though...
