Hello,
I am looking for a good replacement for the driver's seat on my blue gran finale. ( original blue patterned alcantara). Eg a perfect driver's seat, a passenger seat to strip and swap over, or even a set of door cards to strip for the material.

Thanks.

Richard.

Don't have a pic of my car to hand, but this is the interior design...

I am about to take out my blue alcantara seats as I am fitting race seats as I now use my car for hillclimbing only. The seats are immaculate as the car has only done 24k. Seats of this type and condition are extremely rare as they had a tenancy to wear very quickly. I might be persuaded to sell them for the right price.

Yes, they seem to be made of vampire skin as they dissolve in sunlight! I'll pm you and see what sort of money you have in mind.

Thanks.

I've heard somewhere that the cloth is still gettable. Is this a wrong thing?

All of the little squares of one particular colour have selectively rotted out of mine. The pink I think, comparing them with the door panels.

It used to be available and I think someone did buy all the remaining stock, but if someone in the club has it they're keeping it very close to their chest. The actual patten is not available from the official importers.

That would be quite scratchy. Serves 'em right.
