So people are clearly mistaken when they believe the seats in question are Recaro's

They call them "Recaro Style" seats in all the magazines Walkinshaw, not Recaro's.

That's easy enough.
3.2 CFI
91.86 x 79.30
3.2 Litres - can't find exact CC atm.
92 kw @ 4000 rpm
242 Nm @ 3250 rpm

And for the bonus point, relative fuel consumption against a 3.9 cfi (auto)-
12.5 city, 8.5 highway for the 3.2 - 13 city, 9 highway for the 3.9. Manual there was no difference. It was a totally worthwile engine, hey?

Ok. Ta, John.
What model (model code, spec level) was the first to offer *optional* cruise control in the E-series range?

Well, I'll give it to you - was actually optional on EB2 GLi and S Pacs, and was a delete option on Fairmonts.
