Sounds good mate Cool

Are the covers hard to change over on the seats?

Not done it on an SD1 but done it on a MK2 cav. A bit fiddley at times and you need to take your time. On the 2nd time i did i got it spot on.

I admit to having very little experience with interiors.
Usually rip em out and put in a cage with 2 buckets Rolling Eyes

I will be looking for a shabby series 2 once i have most of the parts i want.
Or a stripped out shell.

Wont be ripping apart any minters dont worry. Wink

Although i may have a strong interest in the series1 Jeremy Clarkson shell
if its still sat in RPI's yard when i go back to work there Rolling Eyes

Would prefer a series2 though Wink

Well I have it, and its brand new old stock complete with jaguar rover triumph box!, wrong colour etc but I can swop the covers. I think its nutmeg brown, so if anyone wants a new unused drivers seat covers (base and backrest) let me know as they will be surplus to requirements.
