Whatever you buy, just make sure you test drive it. I tested an R-Design back to back with an Inscription and personally didn't like the seats in the R-Design.

It felt like the front extending section was much narrower than the main seat base and the sides dug into my legs. I haven't seen other people mention this so maybe it's just me, but I think illustrates that comfort is a very personal thing.

Certainly the seats are an issue. If you have the extending part out too far, it make quite a hard ridge across at the front of your bum. Gets uncomfortable and creates a sciatica type pain after a while.
You soon adjust the seat angle and how far out the slider is to get a great
position.

It is the only negative about a great car, but wouldn’t have stopped me buying one.

The moral is, as others have said - take a test drive.
