Headlining

Hi , I'm not 100% sure I have the right headlining , is it possible for a few members of the forum to post some close up pictures and a brief description. ( leather, suede , alcanteria , material, plastic ) and which one they ordered out of the three on the configorator .
Thanks .

We ordered the ebony morzine as we saw the car in the show room and it was a bit like alcantara , it had a pile , as I touched it you could see where I had touched it until I brushed it back over with the back of my fingers . The one we have is more like a material .
The dealer is looking into the matter as there is some confusion over the ebony / ebony interior with a standard ebony headlining .
They have offered to upgrade it as soon as possible if it's wrong or refund the difference . I'm not sure if I want them to change it if it's wrong .

I was told the Alacantara style headlining was the Alston headlining.....

Morzine is the cloth one and Alston is the alcantara one.

My ebony/ebony AB has black Alston with the pile as you described. My order has it written as a note at the bottom to get it.

Hard to take a picture though I can try if you need it. MY16 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography in Aleutian silver, stealth pack and toys.

Alston is the one that looks and feels like Alacantara...

If they offer to change the morizine i'd accept .... The alston really helps the ambience inside the car... much more

Just received an email from my dealer explaining that what we payed extra for was the colour not the finish , they can upgrade if we are not happy though .
I just can't put myself though the pain of letting them replace the headlining with out damaging something , as they bent the T on the sport badge while doing the life shine and didn't notice I don't hold out much hope for a trouble free swap .
Thanks for all your input .

If RRS2 is anything like my last Evoque then the front screen and the panoramic roof both had to be taken out to get the headliner down - I felt that as the front screen and the panoramic roof make up a huge amount of the body's strength I said that I would just have to live with the rattle in the headliner that required it to be taken down as the risk of the body twisting and getting the headliner back up as the factory originally put it in would be very difficult. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

IMHO, Morzine is pretty poor quality for a vehicle at this price. It's no different to you'd get in a £30k Evoque. Alston, however is very luxurious and only surpassed by the leather one I have in the L405 which sadly isn't available on RRS.

One word on Alston though - if you have mild OCD and want the cloth all in one direction, you will struggle to get on with Alston!
