Anyone know the best thing to do with the seats in my Mk1 elise? they are cream leather and have started to wear quite bad. Repair or Recover?

Looks good, or you could search classifieds and buy a replacement set.

If they are the original you can also get them done to 111s spec (more comfortable) by Hangar111.com

Thanks for the advice, but damn you for telling me about hangar111.com, Im going to spend more now!!!

I think a recover is the way to go with the seats and an upgraded leather.
