As far as I recall, TVR used bison as it was cheaper than leather.

It was standard for a bit. It wears quickly as well.

You might want to think about a retrim on the seats.

Yes, the Bison is rather rubbish. When my first Tamora was only two years old, the seat bolsters showed signs of wear. Not even sure it's real leather.

Bison = Vinyl - Nuff Said

Just had my seats done by Dave the Trimmer and my mate Gareth had the same and they look and feel great. We both experienced the new car feel smile

Bison is TVR speak for 'artificial leather' as has been said...and it's pretty crap! Be unusual for the whole bison interior to be in good condition? Definitely something to check and factor in to the price. For your info a full retrim in leather is about £4k...about as it depends on who does it, the spec, the extras, etc and whether there's VAT to add.

Good luck with it
