Title: Leather interior..what\'s it worth??
Post by: CharlieP on August 25, 2009, 12:05:18 PM
Hi all-
Might be selling my leather interior, since they wont match my new colour scheme. Anyway, the retrim cost the previous owner over £1200, very thick leather used, and some complicated and interesting stiching done.
Consists of front seats (99spec,32,000miles), rear seats, and gaitors!

They are like brand new, with no nicks or tears!

How much you reckon?

Honestly ?  Not as much as you are hoping ;)

I would suggest maybe 400 notes tops !  I could be wrong though..

Unfortunately state of the economy is dictating the cost of everything at the moment.  Would have to agree with strange_days_uk £400, maybe £450-500 if you find someone who really likes it.

Maybe worth keeping hold till things pick up?

Everything is exactly the same as far as I know.....the seats \'may\' have slightly different contours if anything.
 
Let me know what sort of money youre thinking

got to be worth what has been said above, as there isn\'t another set like them!!
Are they leather, or the Vinyl "Leather look" material?? to be honest with you good quality vinyl tends to ware better than leather as it doesn\'t dry out & crack!

No they are real leather, retrimmed about 2 years ago...and its the whole seats, inclduing the back with the pocket bit, and the back rest of the rear seats
