Well, the matts have turned up and the quality isn't as good as before. The colour is a better match and they now have a rubber base but the outer trim looks plop. They are having to go in cause the other drivers side has fallen apart. Can't grumble for £40, just a shame they aren't as good as before.

I bought some Autostyle mats once. They are the best quality of the mats I have even bought, but still not OEM quality:

How much are original mats?

Would going to a good interior upholsterer be worth a try?
I've used these guys for a lot of my Alcantara interior http://www.edgeautomotive.co.uk and his workmanship is nothing short of amazing. Prices are pretty good and if he can do a dashboard in Alcantara for £500, knocking together car mats will be considerably less.
