I spoke to Southbound at TIPEC 2008 & they were very helpful & could match the relatively rare interior colour of mine (It's burgundy pin stripe). Not cheap he was quoting around £450ish a seat but could do part repairs if that was a better option.

I have a mate with a burgundy pinstripe sport interior (heated also). He'd like to go burgundy leather, so I could put you in touch if you wanted to buy his existing - might encourage him to do something about it.

Assuming that this is in the UK then yes I'd be interested.I only really need a drivers seat & door panel.

Yep, he's a mate from school, not NZ. He is in Scotland though.

I haven't been in touch with him for a while so I'll make contact and sound him out.
