Charcoal or Blonde interior?
 
I know it typically comes down to personal choice but anyone got any thoughts on what’s ‘best’, for example relating to resale value?

Ive ordered blonde, not had a light interior for 10 years, but Ive had enough black, and I hate shiny black leather as it ages.

However, for resale, black will sell quicker

I remember when I had a beige interior years ago, every time I got into the car, it made me more cheerful. Colours defintely affect emotions so if you get a blonde interior, you may well benefit on the health side too...

The UK is grey enough. Like 'Converted' a light coloured interior and pano roof always lifts my sprit. I have no need to drive yet another dark coloured car, with blacked out everying and a black interior. I have no wish to prented to be in Special Operations or a plastic ninja.

Amber is the best of both worlds.

I have a blonde interior and I think it looks classier and as has been said brightens up everything. I also agree that amber would be a good colour too but it wasn't available on my XC90 MY17 so didn't get the chance to try 1. I don't really see us changing to a black interior anytime in the near future.

Blonde is a great place to spend your day :teeth_smile:

Blonde on blonde ordered.

Blonde looks beautiful; especially with the wood finish. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it's the nicest interior I've seen on a car under £60K

I would recommend staying away from the cream leather if you are likely to have small people or pets in the car; we made dirty marks just looking at one in the showroom, so the practical person in me went for the dark finish. It is definitely a different feel inside with the dark seats and headlining, I wouldn't call it gloomy though - perhaps more like a cinema experience.
