Depends where you are based, got to be a local trimmer close by. I used A&R Pound in Baldock Herts and it cost £250 fully fitted!! Complete with keeping you jigh as a kite for a week after

I guess that should be Shmern

Are you looking to buy just the pre-cut material and fit yourself (unlikely TBH) or get someone to cut/fit ?

K400 had the carpets replaced in my V8s and I think it's a fantastic job, but I presume its in Bournemouth or near there, so not exactly near for you (As we are in NI !)

I'll ask a friend in work here as he knows some people who restore classic cars and they must know a carpet fitter!

Did you ever get the Autostyle mats and are they any good? Also do you know if they will they fit the early V6s or are the footwells wider in the V8/S4?

Cheers

I did get the Autostyle Mats and yes they fit the earlier V6's (well 1990 S2) as well as the V8/S4. In fact I put the Autostyle mats into my S2 to replace the existing mats as they were far to worn. Im going to buy another set for the V8s !

Must get round to finishing the little jobs on the the S2 so I can sell her !

As far as I know, they only supply the front Mats and the Shelf Mat, Is this what you were looking ? I thought you wanted a Full Carpet, sorry

As said before, My experience with Autostyle has been great, the Mats they provided fitted the S2 perfectly and look great.

I got TVR logo on both and Heel rest on the drivers side.

I'll post a photo later if anyone is interested !.

Yep got them on the phone and they are sending me out the samples of grey. Am only doing the front (£70)with the logo's and heel plates extra. Thanks all. Now if only JIGGS could reply (gone are the funny comments).
I wonder if he is forgiven by Ted yet
(Go on Ted you know it makes sense)

Yes would be very interested in photos Shmern... did you buy the parcel shelf mat as well? what heel plates did you go for?

I heard you the first time

I only bought the Floor mats, as the parcel shelf is fine.

I went for the carpet heel guard, as I think metal heel guards could be dangerous in certain circumstances !

I'll sort out photos tonight, and maybe photos of them in the S2 and the V8s to show they fit

there are no TVRs listed in the carpet sets section... did you have to send them a paper template?

[M@H]

They already have a Chim template and other guys in the Chim forum have had good results with sets from them. I don't actually know if they have an S Series set yet..

Spoke to Les at Autostyle of Hungerford today seemed most helpful and nothing was a problem - How businesses should be! He will even do the logo on the floor mats and the parcel shelf mat.
Planning to make a visit and see him tomorrow. If you have any questions for him drop me a line - happy to help!
Cheers

Autostyle has the S3 templates as I sent them a set when I ordered mine and they fit beautifully.
Good company to deal with - extremely helpful and prompt.
