Some photos of the 350i and the seats at the trimmers ready for their new leather.

Looks like you've got a nice sheen on the paintwork, even if the seats are a little trashed.

Hi Mate..Looks like a nice wedge..Are they doing the carpet while the seats are out?..There was someone on here selling the front bottom seat bolsters if you needed one, I will dig through my emails if you do..Cheers..Ziga

The previous owner had the front resprayed just before he decided to sell and it's not a bad job. He also had the wheels re-furbed.

Not sure whether to get the carpets done, now they've dried out they are not too bad. The trimmer is going to sort out the bolsters for me, but thanks.
it's such a shame when these cars get left outside for long periods of time as water does so much damage.

Thats right...especially mould, It will destroy the leather and carpet in no time..Dampness can be remedied with water absorbing gel or crystals which are cheap and effective..Just check all over the carpet just in case any of it has rotted..Are you keeping the colour as is with the piping to match the car colour or going for a cream with blue piping..Look good either way...Ziga

Love the colour and i see you have an 'se' bonnet, which always sets them off nicely. I think i actually prefer the early Tasmin front end like yours to the 'se' front end. It's that lower front spoiler. Just looks right.

This is the interior which actually is ok (with a good clean) and the door cards are also in good condition. so I'm going for the same colour with the blue piping. I like the grey, I have cream coloured leather in my daily drive and the seats are always getting dirty.
