Default Early Sandstone leather seats... (owners in NI/ROI)

I have two sets of these (heated/elec - not memory) sitting in the shed - two sets of front seats and one set of rears.

I'm sticking with Ash Grey, so these will be available, if there's anyone has any interest in picking them up?

They're not perfect, there's a few marks here and there (and the switch pack is broken off at least one of the seats). But overall, the seat cushions are pretty decent, with intact seat pockets on the back too. Might throw in a set or two of embossed headrests as well (good condition)

They won't be expensive to anyone who's willing to pick them up (near Enniskillen)..

I'll get some photos posted here tomorrow, but I'd like to gauge if there's any interest before I spend time cleaning them up.

I'd rather they didn't go to the skip - as they're too good for that (would certainly make good sets of spares). And I really don't have the time at the moment to be removing the seat-backs and cushions to make the individual items deliverable - sorry.

Please respond to the thread or drop me a PM if you'd like more info in the meantime.

Mods, please feel free to move the post to the Members Spares for Sale section, if necessary. For the sake of doing so, I can put up an indicative price of £75/set on the seats (collection only).


Cheers,
Karl.

If Colin doesn't want the rear seat, that would be of interest to me - been on the lookout for same for a fair while.

Here's some pics..

Like I say, not perfect, but still perfectly presentable IMO. The 2nd set of front seats have broken/missing switch-packs and rails (see pics), so more for spares I guess..

Didn't get any pics of the rear seats (have to dig them out!), but from memory, the front seats offer a fair representation of the condition of the rears.

NOTE: My camera has shadows on the lens about 2/3 way across and half way up the images (sorry).

If any interest, please respond to thread or drop me a PM. Will give Colin NI first refusal, as he was first to enquire.


Thanks,
Karl.

Here's some pics of the rear seats - good overall. But, like the fronts, not perfect.

(Bolsters are included too).


Cheers,
Karl.

Thanks for posting those up. Do the second and fourth pics show respectively a scratch/tear and a puncture through the leather, or those just surfaces blemishes?

More than just surface blemishes, in my opinion - those are scratches (though, not punctures) to the leather. Could probably be disguised quite effectively with a touch of Sandstone leather dye


Cheers,
Karl.

If Nobody wants them I will take them...been on the lookout for a full cream leather seats for my Rover 75.

They would match my Sandstone leather Head rest I have.

Just waiting on word back from someone who declared their interest first. But I'll drop you a PM by Friday if I don't hear anything..


Thanks,

I'll withdraw my interest, anyway - too many other things on the go and I don't know how long it would be before I'd be able to call for them.
