Guys I want to change my interior

Have been offered leather interior

Want to know what my interior is worth or is anyone intrested in it

I can see where your sweaty back and sweaty balls have been

How come I only ever see that interior in a Red car, or maybe that’s just me
Wasn’t it a cost option at the time so in theory more desirable or was that only when new?
Must admit though 15 years on they don’t seem to show the wear as much as some full leather ones out there and can imagine it suiting any of the other exterior colours available.
What is the colour of the full leather set you’re thinking of putting in?

Is that the hi-tec leather? I thought it was a no cost option. Way more common on the B5.

Ah - there's my interior up for sale!

To be fair it is pretty tired. It was in my old C5 which did 138,000 miles before it died after I drowned it. When I bought the second one it had an all leather interior and aluminium trim which I really didn't like so we swapped all the interior over, along with all the performance mods. The car had done about 80K at the time and is probably now pushing towards 210,000 I guess, so that's another 130,000 miles - something over 260K in all, and most of them with me in there!!

So in answer to your question of what's it worth - I'd say not a lot (especially if you knew what I had done in there!!)

I guess putting it back to original spec can't be all bad (better than the white leather idea I saw elsewhere!!)

Happy days

Dave

PS - Don't sell the mats - they were as rare as hen's teeth when I bought the first C5 (2006)!!

It’s sold... off to America apparently

Oh well - probably an arse even bigger than mine then!!

Wow how much does it cost to ship an interior to America, would have been cheaper to reupholster their originals!

The USA cars have different interiors. Horrible seats. But they are memory seats.

I have to say my full leather is in remarkable condition for a 15 year old 150k car. There is no receipt for any repairs either and considering there is receipts for EVERYTHING else I would say that's a good sign that its never been done. But it really is like a brand new interior....
