Yeh ,either or, send me the V5 and I'll do it :wink: :roll:

I fancy trying it again with the rather delicious but strict post mistress in my local PO :lol: Refused to do it last time as I foolishly said it was not my car :?
Seems there is a new rule ....anyway... popped to the next town and they did it without question .Will lie this time and see if she twigs :twisted:

Thank you Lee.
Car made it home sans probleme.
Now the headliner to sort out.

Do any posters know of any upholsterers that they would recommend for some action with a headliner that has fallen off the roof???

Week-end activity will involve vacuuming all the debris off the seats and removing whatever I can of the remaining decayed sponge backing.

It's maybe not that local (South Oxfordshire) but Austin's Trim did a great job for mine a couple of years ago.

I used a wire brush for this, but goggles and a mask a must.

Costs do depend on the material that you use for the headliner.
I went for a nice bit of alcantara and I think I paid £120 all in.
