I love it. I’d happily drive around in that. With my arm dangling out the window.

I put forward the Aston Martin Vanquish, amazingly beautiful on the outside (sound fantastic too), then you get that center console...
What is it with AM and their centre consoles? They always look as if they’re from another car and have been tacked on as an afterthought. I so desperately want one but not sure if I could live with the interior. I’ll stick with Porsche for the time being as (IMHO) they usually seem to get it just right on the inside.
I'm my memory serves me right, the centre console is straight out of a Jag XK.
Not the entire console, just the HVAC/Radio things inside it.
An other interior I wouldn't mind at all ....
Not to mention the Fiesta steering wheel...
I have to correct you here.
If memory serves me right, this is a Raid steering wheel. Quite a common after market steering wheel back in the days.
I think you find the same in some RUF cars and other low volume sports cars.

But I think the window switches are from a Fiesta.




As I have said, it may not win a prize for the best interior ever, but I rather like it and I'd happily drive around in it all day in it.

ETA the one in the first pictures has some after market radio of sort. The one in the lower picture has the original Jag XK8 radio and a far better colour scheme. (launch car I think)

The colour spin

Green must be a 'German' thing. Opel Monza:



But then someone did this to a RR:
Michael Fux (US mattress mogul) who specc'd the Rolls Royce has an instragram account detailing all the fabulous cars he has ordered over the last few years. Every colour in the rainbow has been used, spectacularly!

The Jade Green leather in some 911 / 996 is truly truly, awful.

A mix of Sanyo HiFi, Halfords in car neons, bathroom fittings and a few dials lifted from Ridge Racer. All spaced seemingly at random inside an incredibly cramped cabin.

There's a net too. Which nobody will ever use.

1988 Porsche 944 Turbo S Silver Rose. A great car mechanically but completely ruined by it's metallic pink paint and this diabolical interior.

The E9X can look nicer with certain options.


Oh yes! BMW's interiors are often simple and nice. This one is very special, most BMWs have black leather.
It was lemon leather with sports seats. Only thing was that wearing jeans would leave blue colour on them.

Any Tesla for me. A horrible laptop screen stuck in the middle of the dash and nothing else isn’t my idea of a nice interior especially considering the massive price they cost.

It's the 70's innit. This is what your Scirocco would have looked like in 1974...

Think it was more of a seventies thing - even the sensible Swedes got onboard, though at least they kept the dash and wheel black..



Disclaimer: I think the above interiors are utterly fab!!
I had a Saab 900 turbo same colour loved it just found pictures of it

Dunno, some of the interiors have quirks but at least are interesting in their own way

However Suicidal tendencies may be justified if you find yourself here.....
The later ones look like their steering wheels have been steering lock applied already !

Now you are talking......that is so bad it is nearly good.........or Specsavers should use this in their TV adverts,but where on earth did you find it I wonder ?!
This is one of the personally-designed and built vehicles of Ueli Anliker from switzerland,

his homepage opens a whole world of red-and-gold-and-white : http://www.anliker-ueli.ch/projekte

The engineering involved is top level quality, at least in the bikes, don´t know enough about the SLR,

and he is not afraid of going all-in and pull all stops with his UA designs.

In the galleries you will find some pics of the builder and his wife ( SLR passenger).

There are loads of nasty custom interiors, especially from the 70's with fake fur, but for volume production I give you the Marmite Fiat Multipla;



I was also thinking Proton Gen II, which just looked cheap and nasty, but then found this Proton Binyue SUV and can't ignore the goofy dog staring at you from the steering wheel;
