Has anyone ever seen a Swiss Vitesse on leather?
Were they just VDP seats, or Vitesse bolstered ones trimmed in leather?
I've heard some Swiss cars did have leather, and was curious!

Not seen one of those, but once my air-con is in I'd be very tempted to get mine re-trimmed in decent leather. (Would keep the colours the same)

Mention of the leather option on Swiss Vitesses on this website:

Or if the link jumps to the home page, navigate History->3500 Vitesse

The parts guide gives no alternate part numbers for Vitesse seats other
than the flint/osprey velour.

I believe the Swiss Vitesse had a low-compression engine, possibly
the emission control Aussie-spec unit.
