Thanks for all the comments 

That looks very cosy!
Do they have to strip the old trim off of just put the leather on top?

Yes they stripped off the old cloth but used the original seat foam and heated seats e.t.c.

Definately need the heated seats now its soooooo cold!

Lovely work on the interior very similar to the Sciroco tan/biscuit colour you can get.

[smoftah]

Thanks 

The tan / biscuit is what I was after.

Very nice interior re-trim.Was a bit dubious of how it would look in a black car,but it really works.
Good price too excellent value for money by the looks of it
Any more plans for it?

The car is now complete in my eyes but I am sure I will be tempted by something else along the way!
