The interior of this Brava caught my eye too - Both for the fact that I had never seen this style before and because it looked so similar to standard Super - I cant make my mind up if it was as you say "export" only (ie outside of Europe) or a very professional "one off" job. Either way, in my opinion it is very pleaseing to the eye and inviting to sit in. With regard to your other question I assume that you are referring to series 2 Super trim..? Apologies if not. If so, yes there were 2 non leather versions available for the European market at least, one was the velour and the other a herringbone treatment that looked to be a little more coarse than the more common velour. There was a further version available in the Seat versions from series 1 onwards that was much more plush than the Fiat equivalent.? :) Title: Re: interior of 131's Post by: simon131 on March 23, 2008, 06:32:41 PM Guys,
the interior in the Aussie Brava that is in the ad is a one off bespoke version. All the series 3 cars I have seen when I've been over there (a couple of dozen over the 15 years I've been visiting) have all had the same fabric as their European counterparts. Same goes for the series 2 cars too. Si ;) Title: Re: interior of 131's Post by: mirafioriman on March 24, 2008, 08:55:13 AM This trim is the same design as used in some Fiat Argentas. Not seen it on a UK 131 though.....
