Absolute bargain of a find!
Got these 2017 Q5 half leather half alcantara heated seats for dead cheap, I've been after seats for about 3-4 months..
You have to cut a few little bits off which is very easy and they go straight on touran bases.

Can't help but think they make the rest of the front look old, though

im not sure your meaning ...
as in they bring the whole interior down ?
or
they are so nice the rest of the interior is substandard ?
irrespective, you got some nice creature comforts
don't fret about minor technicalities - go for a drive and feel the comfort and forget about your worries

Yeah, as in because they're quite new, I think a steering wheel change would sort it right out, but thanks a lot, mate!

Vans has been leaking due to a failed washer on the sump plug, so I've taken the chance to replace the oil filter and sump plug.

Haven't posted for a while, gave her a good clean inside and out!
Also got lucky with this front end the other day and awaiting some other bits and bobs and I'll be getting this sorted very soon!

Spent the best part of 8 hours today underneath a gazebo just giving my van a once over with the polisher and a bit of medium cut.
Mostly the bonnet that really needed it, tbf after being stored.
