Alcantra or full leather interior?

[bunnyman]

Hi all,
Quick query. I am currently considering a few used Vanquish alternatives.There is a rather nice 2015 Carbon Black model I am looking at.
Is a part alcantra interior perceived as more desirable than full leather and is is it a more,or less, expensive option?
Thanks.

Leather or Alcantara could cost about the same when new but there is more potential for leather to cost a lot more depending on the leather grade and colour and if quilted with contrast stitch etc.

Cost and good taste do not always go hand in hand though so always buy the interior you like the look of and want to sit in irrespective of the material.

Good luck finding a Vanquish with an interior that is not Obsidian Black though!

I like the look of the quilted Alcantara, but leather wears a bit better.

Cheers,
Jeff.

My V12VCB has leather and Alcantara seats, i really like the look and feel of this combo.

I'm with you Paul. For form & function the leather & Alcantara combo is hard to beat (especially on Lightweight seats )

But remember this is a Vanquish. More GT than Sports. However Alcantara can really help some of the more flat interiors. Tasteful quilting can lift a full leather interior (though some quilting is a bit over the top). If you are really lucky you can find a tasteful, quilted, full leather interior with lightweights (completely biased view and any excuse if we are posting interior pica

Even a week on it's still gorgeous

Yes I agree, one of the best interiors I have seen.

I can't believe you still think its ok and not regret going for the proper Vanquish interior colour of all Black.
I actually saw one with cream the other day.
