    Yeah i have the twin...its nice.....

    As for seat covers, I have custom fitted sheepskin. I bought the car second hand, 1 lady owner so the seat covers are white sheepskin, lambs wool, or Siberian Mountain Lion skin...not sure but I know they are expensive to get made but are damn worth it. They do get really dirty too....i need to get them cleaned. But great for summer and winter as they are the perfect temperature. The seats don't get cold or hot.

    Are you for real about not getting black ones because of the heat it attracts???

    I am sorry dude but I find that funny. Besides, your car is silver so most of the heat is reflected off the interior.

    that is true it does reflect....but a black interior still does attract more heat that a lighter colour....and for example....i can't confirm but have heard that a silver/chrome gear knob gets hotter to touch that the black leather examples.

    But doesn't really matter what you get.....QLD gets damn hot anywhere you are....

    That is true.

    I bought a black car and Mum especially said "what did you do that for it will be soo hot" and well she has been with me in Summer and there is no real difference. I left my car outside at Booval for the middle of the day and it was no hotter inside then it was in my silver Barina.

    Black doesn't attract heat, it absorbs it - but Opel's have good air conditioning, so it's all good!!!

    a chrome gearnob will absorb more energy and be hotter being that it is metal, where as the black ones are either a plastic or leather and do not keep the energy absorbed as much as a metal..

    Something that does get really hot in my car and is black - the whole bloody car. I leant on it on Sunday after being on the Opel cruise and burnt my arm.

    Nope... just got in the car and cried like a girl. lol. It was one of those delayed burns where you lean on it and it's burning but it takes a few moments to register.

    My Silver Barina never had that problem.
