Good luck with it mate - the beige certainly looks nice.

I've never felt a black interior (had a couple) adds to the heat, but dark paint definitely does. Choose what appeals to you, it doesn't really matter what the rest of us think!

i've noticed no difference in dark interiors compared to light interiors in terms of heat retention . Lighter colour interiors are much higher maintenance due to marking easily and showing every single fleck of dust and marks . Paint colour makes a bigger difference than interior .

Yeah I'd agree with that Tim. Interior colour has always been about practicality and good looks for me.

I have the white and beige combo and no regrets, a pleasant change from the all black interior, much brighter inside. It still has the dark chocolate dash which cuts out the reflections.

Thanks GMEMUD - is it hard to keep clean? What do you use to clean the leather?

We have the brown/blue combination after having had 2 all black and are happy with the change after 2 1/2 years. I use either of the commercially available leather conditioners on all leather twice a year.
