I am about to have a new roof and new carpets fitted.

Roof - I am probably going to go with Navy blue again but I am sure I've seen a few other blues on my travels but cant seem to find any pics. If anyone has an alternative to navy can you post some pics ?

Interior - currently grey seats and carpet. In the future I'm going to have seats, dash etc changed to cream and blue but right now its just the carpets - I'm leaning towards navy (same as the hood) but I am sure I've seen interior pics of other blues but google isnt helping. If anyone has interior pics of blue carpets they can share I'd be most grateful.

Cheers

If you are going cream, you may want to go black with cream piping?

My car is Starmist Blue, with Magnolia seats, magnolia centre console, navy dash top and centre console sides, navy carpets with magnolia piping. Carpets are about the same hue as the Starmist blue paint,

I have also seen pics where the seats are done magnolia/cream two tone, which IMHO looks awesome.

I will try and upload pics of my car tomorrow - on iPad tonight, upload doesn't work

Good forecast, so If you have some spare time this week and fancy a drive, I am at Newark ( M1,A46), which is 90 miles north of you, and you can pop by, have a meal and see the car in the flesh.

If your going for blue and magnolia, the carpets go well in navy with cream piping.

Thanks to everyone for the help and advice - Navy is going to be the colour I think I do like this pic...just getting some samples to decide which type of carpet to go for. I'm not sure what colour the leather will be yet as I dont have the money for a full retrim yet so I will go with navy piping.

Also going with the standard navy hood to complete the look.

Either to save you a journey, or to encourage you to see it in the flesh, that's exactly my colour scheme as I tried to describe it above
