Seat piping/boot carpets

[STE VR]

1.Did the Chimaera ever have different coloured piping to the seats or were they all just stitched??

2. Was there ever an option to have the same carpet fitted to the boot rather than the cheapish grey stuff?

Only asking as i'm having a full interior done and want to keep it original as possible but these are the options the upholsterer is giving me.

Many thanks in advance..

Don't think the answer is yes to any Steve, I recall someone did have colour carpeted boot but really can't remember if it was original..

One thing I would say is make sure you get the carpet edging done in leather. Mine were done in leatherette, prob only me notices ~ but it does rile me

For the price i'm paying i want the carpets edged in GOLD!!!

why is it when you mention tvr the price suddenly goes up 100%. i had part exchange front seats black leather grey piping , black door card with grey piping, new carpet set ,boot carpet set and new window winders and handles for £450 plus £100 to fit the lot with underlay , of course it was not a tvr but my mgb roadster .why can i get a good deal on other cars but when it`s tvr i seem to get ripped off .why does no one make ready made leather seat covers .

the company is still going who covered the seats from new , i bet they have the pattern .they just want to charge a fortune ,in the end i picked a nice pair of seats up from flea bay .

They take real pity on you owning an MGB, whereas they envy you with TVR?
