I feel like they’re “devaluing” the fancy colours/materials by offering them on the lower power variants

^^^^ I'm with you on that East Yorkshire.

It's almost like there's a long term plan to drop SEAT as a brand and just have CUPRA. :-k. :-k

As for the Tribe editions? Not my cup of tea although a choice beyond Black, White and Grey would be nice.

I like the Manganese matte colour, but I wouldn’t ever have matte paint; too much hassle and a chore to keep it looking good. Anyone with matte paint who’s a bit too enthusiastic removing unwanted deposits such as bird poo could end up with non-matte patches on their price and joy if they use unsuitable products and / or rub too hard. Supermarket car park scratches can’t be polished out either, and I dread to think what damage a hand car wash place might inflict on a matte paint finish, not to mention the free complementary dealership service wash!

I‘ll stick with a good old traditional gloss paint finish.
