I wish my car's interiors looked as sparkling as that even after 5 years. My car unfortunately did not come with the Safety pack. Those are pictures I had stored on my pc a while back from a BS Motoring article on the S10. Here it is from the website's archive:-

The hand stitched leather on the steering wheel and the gear knob came with each one of those 500 cars. Even my car has them, just that the red colour on the stitching has faded off a bit. Agree on the alloys, the earlier design was fantastic. Ditto for the Airbag fitted steering wheel. I remember sitting in one of these cars at Shaman auto back in 2003. Trust me, the feel of the car from inside was fantastic. The aluminium pedals, the hand stitched leather, special quality fabric seats, the steering wheel with airbag, it was such a nice place to be in.The quality of the materials used was much better than what we get in the Palio Stile now.
