190E 16V seat question
Hello! I am looking at buying a 190e 16v here in Canada. I got some pics today of the car and the seats look different to me. I was under the impression from others that I saw (years ago) that the seats were all black leather. These seem to have some insert? Here is a pic of them. Are these the right seats?
Thanks!!

Thanks for the quick reply! Do you think the cloth inserts are more sought after? I would rather have all leather but the 16vs are very hard to come by in my neck of the woods. As well, it supposedly has low kms so am surprised at the wear on that seat.

There's always those that want what wasn't available here. The owners "across the pond" want the full leather seats, while North Americans like the different look of the houndstooth chequed fabric on the seat and door panels. Personally, I think leather is an awful seating material for car seats.
The downside to the cloth inserts is that the will fade/stain/wear differently than the leather over time. However they can be reupholstered and cleaned to freshen them up.
