Leather: also available without the ' Alu Pack '?

Went to the dealer today to check some models he has in stock. Finally I have made up my mind. I am gonna buy a 1.6 CC , new grey alu colour ( same as the current silver one ) with climate control AND leather.
Was in for a little surprise when I came home, in Holland the leather ain't available without the alu pack. The alu pack contains some stuff I like ( like the peugeot strip next to the driver's seats and the leather wheel ) but there are 3 things I just really dislike. 1. The grey ( or is it white ) dashboard screen, I prefere the black one. 2. The silver ' golf ball ' on your gearbutton, again I prefer the black one. ANd finally the alu pedals, I also don't like them. Sorry to seem so picky guys, but is holland the only country where one MUST buy the alu pack to get leather ?

agree - the alu touch adds a bit of style / sport look to the CC.

if you want everything dull - buy an LX and you won't be disappointed.

or go dull and downright ugly and get a Megane

Seriously, you could always get cloth and have the leather trim done aftermarket

before the focus my dad had a megane and frosty is right very dull - bit weird as the coupe is not bad and the convertible quite nice apart from that cheap looking roof

Yep without the alu pack makes the car looks boring and unsporty

The white dashboard wasn't to my taste either but it is easier to see with the roof down than the black one.
