Default I have just spent 500€ with Damen & Kroes Holland. Am I sick?

I got so fed up with not being able to find any nice genuine Rover accessories available within the UK I got all reckless at work today and did my cookies on some rare things I wanted to own for no apparent reason whatsoever.
I wouldn't mind but its only four things!

Two of them will be severely frowned upon but the other two are the boot.mounted triangle with fixing kit and the genuine Rover spare bulb kit.

I need help! :-)

A real walnut centre armrest alone will set you back 500 Euro








Don't feel guilty though as many folk spend 300-400 quid per month on a lease car...............they don't even own

Jules, That , my friend is the crowning glory to that interior!!. I am soooooo jealous of you!!. I have all the walnut I can find in mine including the handbrake and auto gear knob but I only have a humble black (real) leather arm rest!!

PMSL mate. Sadly not guilty. I'm as low as you can go on the railway without being a piece of ballast.
I blame Rimmers for not having any stock!

A most true call mate.
Is there actually a part number for that walnut armrest.
I would.have one if anyone had one to sell.
I know Ronnie on here bought one in the sales section recently and I have no doubt he would sell it to me at cost. Not.! :-)

Arm rest was purchased by previous owner but there is reference to them on here somewhere I'm sure?

Why blame Rimmers for "not having any stock", they supply whatever they were able to buy at the time of MGR exit plus only what someone else makes now.

I do not understand your point.
