Not full leather seats? Vauxhall Griffin badge on the steering wheel?? Red instead of blue highlights on the speedo/tacho??? What on earth is going on here?

Anyone want to try an explanation? I assumed it was just a sample photo from the UK that the dealer is using, but there's a VZ Commodore in the window, and i doubt they are very common in the UK.... puzzling.

Vauxhall version has no leather or heated seats.

I think it was the one reviewed in the Motor Mag I have at home.

There are about 10 or 11 there for low 40's drive away or less, including the Vauxhall one pictured above, they've been there for quite some time too ;)
