Does anyone have any personal recommendations for firms who make bespoke/tailored car mats and/or carpets?

I'm looking to have a set made for the Citroen but am struggling to find anyone who is reasonably priced.

I've got an old set that can be used as a template if required.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

A couple of winters back I replaced the carpets in my car, I didn't do the 'boot' or the firewall as they were fine.

Since the carpets were black with black piping, colour matching wasn't a problem. Also to stay authentic/original I put the cheapest ones in...

I sent my old carpets to http://www.classic-car-carpets.co.uk/ which they used as templates. About a week later I got the whole lot back with a couple of cans of spray glue for less than £200 (about £160 if I recall correctly). They fitted perfectly and I was very happy.

The guy who owns the company is a committed car nut and is passionate about his Lancia Integrale - so it's no hardship to speak to him.


Edited to add ---- just checked the website and they do a carpet set for a Citroen DS23 if that helps http://www.classic-car-carpets.co.uk/home.php?cat=...

Terrific, thanks. I've just dropped them a line to see if they have a photo of any they've done before. If it looks good they'll be getting an order for those, £170 not too bad either.

Thanks again.
