Air con a very rare extra then? a lot of cars i've looked for don't come with it, The S-VTs come with Heated leathers? which would be lovely in the Winter.
Air con is an optional extra and not all that common. When stuck in traffic not moving its a god send, roof up air con on and you're lovely and cool. Start moving again, knock it off, roof down and all is good
I originally thought about removing my air con to save weight as I was in the 'its a convertible, you don't need it' camp, however after getting stuck in roadworks for an hour on the way to the Nurburgring last year in the scorching heat I don't think I would have made it without it!!
Yes the mk2.5 sports come with heated leather seats, but I hate them. They offer no support, you sit on them not in them, and they are very high. I couldnt drive my brothers sport with the roof up when he had the leather seats in as my head touched the roof. We swapped them for my old standard cloth seats and they are much better.
