chimaera carpets

[vickies]

Having just bought a chimaera it came complete with indoor swimming pool, having drained the pool the carpets have perished, can i get new or is there somewhere i can obtain them, apart from that the car is fun

Id fix the leaks before you think about new carpets. A set of footwell mats crop up on ebay now & then, which would tidy you over.

Coverdale Carpets seem to be a popular choice.

As Dave says, fix your leaks first. My carpets have rotted too from previous floods - honk a bit too, but now it is dry I can at least consider new carpets - and at £1100 custom fitted I need to consider it a lot!

I got my new full set from coverdale, they couldnt have been more helpful, they sent me samples the next day and the full set was delivered within 10 days for £300!

I've just got 2 work out how to fit them now lol anyone know how u work out which piece goes where or is it just a fun jigsaw?? hehe

coverdale are top notch....but they have recently increased the price for the chim quite a bit.

What they said, fix those leaks first! I fitted a Coverdale set just over a year ago, very nice too. Bear in mind when you do it that the seats, belts, console and ideally roof rear section need to come off. In fact once you have all that stuff out, it's a piece of cake.

Being a little lazy I got Aldridge trimming in Wolverhampton to re-carpet mine - excellent job, but then they have been in the business for 50+ years, so know what thery're doing. They tend to specialise in vintage jags, astons etc - charged about £800 for top quality 80/20 wool carpets & fitting which took best part of 4 days. Def better than original carpets.

I saw Chauch's car at Offords a while ago - the carpets look stunning. I will use the same place when I have mine redone.

Chauch,sorry to hi/jack but do you know if they just supply the set also,its to far for me(not conveinante)thanks.

[Chauch]

I would guess they would fit only as they just make them up for the car using your carpet as a template and match leather edging etc.

hi my carpets stunk ,took them out threw them in the washer on a cool wash and there like new.i went wild with the silecone gun filled every hole bolt etc and now all leaks have gone daz

[Flintstone]

You must mean the mats? The carpets are large pieces, can't see them fitting into a washing machine.

[daren parker]

no not just mats ,ripped the lot out then glued them back with a tin of spray job done

[Flintstone]

Blimey.

Tried putting your gearbox in the dishwasher yet?

[daren parker]

no the gear box will not fit ,why not spend half aday removeing the seats and removing the lot ,they go back lovely and save you a fortune ,all the smells have gone
