The screen reading is your main/starter battery & the dealer should (as part of PDI) charge it to a minimum of 85%.
It got it's PDI at least a week before I eventually got to pick it up and I noticed that the AC and ignition and everything was on with the engine off for the whole half hour handover so it may have been at 85 when it's PDI was done, and yeah I worked that out the day after I posted the comment about the reading's

Just curious if anyone has ordered the Ineos car seat covers and what the fit/quality is like?

I think people are being harsh ~ they look to do the job seat covers are meant to do, not sure you're ever going to make them look fitted without either a degree of time and effort or go for a material with some elasticity but perhaps less hard wearing?

Whether they are value for money is another matter.

It’s not awful, but at (from memory) £500 for the set, it’s not good either. Thanks for the pictures. I wonder if I can return mine / request them left off.
me too. I've ordered the IA ones and will see what they are like. Have also recently ordered the M&M ones and asked for the spare cover to be made to fit 33" tyre. Not sure if poss.

If the IA ones are really bad I shall leave at the dealers. If ok then might keep or try and sell on ebay. Not really overly confident of getting a refund from IA.

You could test the distance selling regs ~ from my limited understanding, it's a slam dunk in your favour if you leave them at the dealers.

Of course, getting the money might be a different matter...

You are right, they do look like they protect seats which is what the cover are meant to do.

I ordered the M&M and I think it was a good choice. As soon as they arrive, I will post a photo under the M&M thread. By the way, I ordered them in Charcoal with black leather.

Here's another potential option for seat covers. As a surfer I had these in one of my vehicles and loved them. Cool in summer and warm in winter and waterproof too. Also very custom form fitting and easy to install too. Lots of color and stitching choices. When I get my Grenadier, I will see about taking it to them to do a master pattern so that I can get a set and then anyone after that can simply order them online for a perfect fit. DaBull

Interesting option. Would covers like that be airbag friendly? That seems to be a hurdle to modern seat covers.

I like the sheep skin fur or the faux ones. Dry robe do some nice looking seat covers which wouldn’t be expensive or to everyone’s taste, but the backs are trash and one rough boot sole or a dog claw and I think they would rip like paper.

Moot point anyway, I have the MM ones on order. Steffi is super quick at sorting stuff and they are next level quality wise.

These are what I'll be using - done me proud over a number of different vehicles over more years than I care to say. Takes 1 min to fit, 30 seconds to take off and store under each seat, taking minimum space - fit for purpose:
