Default WTK: Is heated seats worth it?? 2001 1.8t. ANYONE HERE DON'T HAVE THAT OPTION?

I am in the process of choosing between two cars.

One doesnt have the heated seat options but its quattro and it has 10k more miles. The other is in another state and has less miles but has heated seats.

Did anyone here take it off. Or was there problems with the heated seats?

Thanks
I love this forum.

if I had to choose betw. heated seats and quattro, I'd definitely choose the latter.

IMHO, Quattro is WAY more important than heated seats.

Default I'd be more concerned about the mileage.

I wouldn't miss heated seats over quattro, for darned sure. If you're asking about heated seats you're obviously not in California or Florida (i.e. you're in someplace with inclemate weather), so I would say quattro is a huge plus.

Default 2nd

Those of us with both are spoiled I guess. Even if the option wasn't purchased, aren't the connections and warmers still there and ready to go? Or is my memory failing me?

I have not tried the quattro yet because snow has not arrive yet. The heated seat was blessing one chilly morning.
