So I take it you got a full refund so didn't lose out financially?

Good example why to never beleive someone selling you something and seek info elsewhere.

I'm in the same situation. I test drove a Prestige and then a Dynamic, which I purchased a couple of months ago. It wasn't until the drive home that I started to notice that the seat pressed on my hips. I'm 6'7" tall, so I am definitely larger than most. I didn't pay much attention to seat comfort as I was more focused on knee room and head room. I have tried various cushions and seat covers, but I just can't seem to get comfortable. Not only is the seat kind of narrow, but the raised side bolsters are also really firm.

Now I am wondering if I need to do as R22Flyer did, and trade it in for something else. It's such a shame, because I love everything else about the car. I don't even want to think about how much this will cost me.

No, I owned one for about 3 seconds......right up to the point the dealer said "its come without the panoramic roof". My response was simple "I don't want it". New one on order due 17th Jan

Quick info to all of you. We received (me and my colleague) received our Evoques. Both of us have the same issue, the seat right side (UK right handed car) cusion "bite" into our leg. He already took it back, found out, the seat missing a supporting frame therefor no proper support > warranty repare. Mine goes back on Monday for check (maybe my bottom is too big ).
Any other way the car is superb.

I sat in all three versions and noticed the seat seemed to be the same width in all. I've had cars with tight-fitting "performance" seats before, so it didn't feel that odd. After taking delivery of my Dynamic six days ago, I don't even notice any more -- and I'm coming from a L322. There are a couple of places in the Los Angeles area that can reshape seats by sculpting the underlying foam.

I also felt the same and it kept me worried for a while. However changing the seat height just a bit solved the issue completely.

Would it hurt anyone to say that finally I have seats that feel like they were made for me? Almost perfect.

For what its worth I think the Evoque seats are the most comfortable of any car I've driven.
