Bucket seats

[alper]

Any input on the cruising comfort of the bucket seats anyone? Planning some long travels across Europe once I get the car so I would love to hear how comfortable they are on 4-6hr. journeys. I don't neccesarily want them for the extra support but for giving that extra sport feel to the cabin

Did a solid 4 hour motorway slog the other week... No issues at all

Hi

What do the back of the seats look like? Pockets? Plastic? Leather?

Pictures?

Thanks

The back is plastic...

Will they scratch easy?? Soft har hard plastic? Love to see some pictures guys.

It's hard plastic, my little boy sits in the back and it seems not to scratch easy.

I'll try to take some pictures today.

How large is the lumber support on the bucket seat (can it be altered) I have a titanium rod fused to my spine so pronounced lumber support is quite painful, suppose I'll just have to try it

It's fixed, can't be altered unfortunately.

I'm not going for the optional sun-roof, I heard that they can crack.

When you throw a big brick from a height on it?
I'd have paid double for it!

Kia? So sunroofs are manufactured by the same company?

This goes for all sunroofs

Its in case of emergency. Its not really a sunroof ( you seen the sun recently?) but an escape hatch. Woven into the glass by delicate fingered Korean women is a thin explosive thread, invisible to the naked eye. When the vehicle thinks it is about to have an accident, this thread detonates and clears the glass. Clearly the system needs recalibrating if the glass is breaking and there is no accident, this can be done by switching on the ignition, and shutting your head in the drivers door several times.
Seat drivers should not be concerned, as VAG have not yet found any Spanish, German or Polish people with delicate enough fingers.
Honest!!!

Thats my point exactly. It may have flown over your head but then again maybe not.

His buddies Kia with a panoramic sunroof exploded. What he takes from this is that all sunroofs will do the same
