Default Are cloth seats rare in the US?

Saw pics of a disco 2 for sale and it has cloth seats front and rear. Appears to be factory as it also lacks the seat switches. I've never seen one with cloth seats before here in the US. Was this just a low trim option from the factory or something?

My 99 was a base option with cloth seats and no sunroofs. Not sure what other years this was available.

I want to say that the earlier years had an option for cloth centers and leather bolsters. Maybe on the SD trim level?

Some S/SD models = were cloth, but most never left the lot without leather seats. Most dealers had the cloth changed out.

Super rare. Only seen about a dozen in pictures, never one in person.

I'm myself very interested in getting my hands on a set of cloth seats and new seat cushions for the front seats in my 04 D2. Been searching for awhile but can't find any.

Clothes seats were more common on TD5 models in the UK and elsewhere in the world. There also was a "commercial" trim level with paneled up windows, no sunroofs, steel wheels and cloth seats.
