Did these cars come with leather or vinyl centre consoles and door bolsters ? Was it standard to have wool carpets .
I `m having some work done soon and can`t work out if its worrth splashing out and going for wool carpets and leather .
I can`t decide if to have carpet ,vinyl or leather door cards .
They all seem to look smart when re trimmed .

Mine were vinyl, had the dash redone in the leather but the bottom half isn't a great job because of the weird shape so I think i'll get it redone in black vinyl to match the door cards.
I personally wouldn't spend the extra on wool carpets, it's not like your rubbing them with your hands or feet anyway?
Get the door cards done in something nice though like suede

To be fair, the vinyl used by TVR is visually a pretty good alternative to leather, however. leather is just so much nicer IMO.
My interior is being retrimmed in leather by Central TVR as we speak, I will collect it next week
Andav, I was at Central just yesterday picking up mine (again). I always enjoy a good look around the shop and car park. Which one is yours? My interior is being retrimmed in leather by Central TVR as we speak, I will collect it next week
I think leather feels much nicer and there is also the smell factor.....you can't been the smell of new leather!

I`m having new carpets but can`t decide if to have wool or nylon .
The center console is being re trimmed and maybe the door bolsters .The door card will be vynl or leather but only if i decide to have new door bolsters .
I`ts not a full re trim but just enough to tidy it up .
Just can`t decide .

I used alcantara on my door inserts over a layer of 10mm foam in my Chimaera. My last Griff' was 3/4 leather that had leather dash and door inserts. Never been a fan of carpet in the doors.
Alcantara is £80 a meter .If i went for that ir would be used for door carts and the arm rest part of the centre console Is it man made product ?
