I've just had car valeted to get as much of the dirt as possible out of the Leather Seats. However the seats have a few scratches on them and the drivers seat Bolster needs restoring too.

Any recommendations?

I've been told about a place in warrington, which is ideal, but having searched the web the only reference I can find is a comment from somebody to say the place has gone into administration (they were called Auto Interior Specialists).

Thanks in advance

P.S. The car is a 3 series BMW, 53 plate.

These are the guys in Warrington - Steve and Steve.

They do amazing work and are highly recommended. I hope it is not them that have gone into receivership - work like theirs is hard to find.

I know exactly where they, just around the corner from Unit11. Always see nice cars outside of there in for trim work.

I'll have a run up there this week. Any ideas on what they charge?

Thanks

Cannot really say what they charge - but significantly less than a retrim I would imagine. IIRC they are ex Rolls Royce and hold a licence to use the Connolly trade name. They did two sofas for me around 7 years ago - £300 ish, and they were better than new and have worn better ever since. I remember they ad Ryan Gigg's Ferrari in to sort out once after his brother had trashed the interior of it.
