No problems.

I do have a few questions though -

The buyers Gide has been great and have decided on the 4.4 Sport.

I went to see one today but it didn't have the sports seats. The seat base was flat.  Is this the comfort seats?

Cheers

Possibly.  What was the trim? Leather or Cloth?  Did the seat sides have prominent 'bolsters'?  If not, then it's more likely they might be comfort seats.  The Comfort seats have larger head restraints and more switches for adjusting the seats - including the ability to change the curve in the backrest and power adjusted head restraints.
