Steven,

What colour are the leather seats in your car? In the top photo they look light grey but in the bottom one they look dark?

I'm about to order my new company car and have decided on the C300 hybrid in white but can't decide upon red, black or grey leather seats. Convention says red leather with white but I have that on my Z4 so fancy something different but have never seen a white car with grey leather.

Is it the Artico black "leather" StevenH72? It's an interesting idea, (fake leather) but actually quite clever. After around 18 months mine still looks brand new in the SLK and I've never actually applied anything to it. At first glance you would never tell it wasn't real leather.
 
In the UK, on the C Class you can get black only Artico as the base/entry textile. Up from that you pay for real black, red or grey leather. Its hard to tell from the photos above if its real or fake, the perforated is usually the fake/Artico.
 
Ahhh ok. The brochure on the website I think implies you can have grey, beige or black Artico on the Sport model, but only black on AMG Line...?

Sorry yes I'm talking AMG line only. More Artico options in the lower spec models.
 
You mean 4Matic? It's available on the numerous models and 4x4s (obviously). It's also coming soon in the c class in the C450 AMG 4Matic.
 
It's really the C class that will interest us!
After having a Quattro for years now, she won't have anything else other than a 4wd saloon.
 
I do like a happy ending:
Forum E89 guru stays in the fold, and gets the girl, as it were.
Old faithful(ish) E89 stays in the family, and retired to pasture and weekend fun.

Enjoy the new car :D
