We've seen it before when they've offered more colourful interior options on the likes of the up!, Polo and T-Roc, and they're just never popular, everyone opts for the most boring colour which is always grey/black.

Sure, but the pre MY22.5 dash was a bit lighter, wasn't it ? Whereas the new dash looks "Batman" dark to me 😀

I'm also trying to work out which bits of the seat are vegan leather. Vegans have a perfect right to choose non-animal products and I'll go to the wall to defend their choice, but I don't know why we all have to suffer by default 😂 I was scarred - literally - by sunshine on the plastic seats in the ancient Allegro we had as family transportation when I was a kid and clearly the PTSD hasn't fully been addressed...

Perhaps, you should not ask why you have to suffer but why should the animal suffer.

I assume if there were more intelligent life on a different planet and they came to Earth you would not object if they killed your children and used their skin as leather and ate their flesh. Surely, this is the same argument as human animals killing other animals.

Pretty sure my kids would be all stringy.

Like I said, it’s a choice thing.

Ultimately choice = cost. Vegan leather suits the ideology behind EV ownership, so it's hardly surprising manufacturers are choosing it. I don't mind, I've spent plenty of time in Teslas and what they use is great.

Vegans believe there should not be a choice.

I cannot understand why some meat eaters believe it is wrong to eat a dog or a horse (or even dead humans).

I am a vegetarian and not a vegan and my view has now changed. I think vegetarianism is not enough. The vegan view is morally correct.

Not necessarily, I know a few vegans who have made the choice because of lifestyle or health reasons. They're not all militant!

Configurator for the Max seems to no longer offer the bi-colour Silver exterior styling - I like that and have ordered it on mine… wonder if it’s been dropped?

Oh, Ok - I ordered a Family last week with it. I was sure it was on the Max as well as I was comparing prices against DTD for various models & options.

The granny cable as a factory option for £180 is gone as well - now just the dealer option at £216.

Wasn’t on the 1st Ed I rented a fortnight back, and not on the screengrabs I took off the family configurator last week.

Do people care you think there there should be a choice?

You passive-aggressive comments are getting more frequent.
