Presenting my new Plus 8 in satin grey with interior trimmed in cream and charcoal alcantara - no leather anywhere.

(I've given up trying to post these in the Photo Forum but hopefully I've smuggled them in here!)

Keeping it clean wouldn’t be my primary worry!

Great looking car.

Alcantara is a great choice, much better than leather IMO. I think I would have had to go for charcoal all over, I'm a grubby oik and could never keep the cream clean.

Yes there is that issue but going for a black interior is so Merc/BMW/Audi. I always reckon thats one of the problems with most Porkers - they are so ordinary in the cockpit. I dont want to live life in black and white.

I'll be interested to know how the Alcantara fares. I only ever had some in the Lotus and it was a sort of suede finish to the dashboard. I can imagine it being a bit too grippy in seats and even more inclined to gather dirt. But I guess it has to be way better than natural leather if caught in the rain with the top off.

That is rather special...do like the interior and the absence of chrome.

How about getting the door handles black finished?
