Thanks. Some late registered 2006 cars came with the later seats.

Cheers

The 2007 model cars, which were predominantly cars registered after September 2006 came with the newer/later seats.

Hope that helps

Liking that & welcome
Interested to hear how you get on with 20" wheels
I'm guessing the polished parts are actually painted or wrapped as they aren't metal so won't polish up

Don't know what you're referring to, Mickey, I have disassembled many parts of the Vantage interior, and I can guarantee you that those parts are indeed metal.

ps. the paintwork looks very tidy - if you have some slush funds, covering that in armourfend at the front and on the "hips" can save some paintwork later on.. they do like a stonechip!
Will have to check that out, there is only acouple around the hip area and none on the bumper/bonnet so would be nice to keep it protected.
