I bought a fiat 500x on the 1st March, the gear box leather seems to be torn, showing a black mesh, the staff at Blackburn motor park have said its Velcro so that the gaitor can be pulled above the stick, and that the show room ones are of the same design, I'm not sure if this is the normal thing? Anyone else's gear box like this? Thanks in advance

Nope mine doesn't look like that........stitching looks torn. Good luck with dealership.

Gear stick Velcro

Just reposition the Velcro closer together to stop the gap.

I see thanks for taking that picture, prob is the case just seemed like the defensive response at first with it being new, would have thought I wouldn't be the first to ring dealership about this and they could of re assured that's the design, they've ordered me a new one but if it's going to be the same then that's how it is.

Thanks

Yep, I pulled mine apart for the photo....it just needs to be pulled back together to make it meet. I can see how it could be mistaken for a fault.
