It might come to nothing, but if I purchase a 2014 3.0 S with Ivory electric performance seats, and find that I don’t get on with them, might anyone out there fancy a swap of seats, door cards and grab rail for their Black interior?

I was a bit dubious about it when I first saw it, but I've grown to love it. I couldn't cope with more red than just the middle bits of the seats, though.

@SCM_ Kinky.. ;)

Just joking ! I love it too ! First time I have seen red seats like this was in a white RRS SVR.. ..looked GREAT..

Last I was offered an SVR F-Pace in red, whith a COMPLETE red interior.. ..not just the central part of the seats,
but also the sides AND the lower section of the dash... ... SHOCKING.. red that was.. :shock:

I think it needs red roofliner as well... :lol:

It has been the demo the importer got to loan to dealers. This pictures are from a test by a car magazine..
.. so its not me sitting in the rear seat.. :mrgreen:

Yeah, while there's no such thing as too much power, there can definitely be too much red for me!

Black makes the interior look so dark and drab IMO.

Ivory really lightens up the whole inside. We have Ivory in our XFS Portf, and it is a bit much, however we offset it with full alcantara in black from shoulder height up..that breaks it up a little.

Our first F type had red everywhere, seats, doors and grab handle...made you feel sick after a while...and I could have specced a red interior surround around the windscreen!

Black door cards with centre colour in black seats is the best compromise.

I think the best interiors seem to be this new kind of coffee/latte colour with losenge stitching.
Check out Ebay...plenty of scrappers going for grabs on there.

I had a caramel interior in my 2010 XKR which was a nice compromise between ivory and black ....
But I do like my "black with a bit of red" interior. :D

Could be tempted by that - 2014 in black/dark grey. I loved the tan interior in my XF.
