Could anyone recommend any where to get my seats either partly or fully re trimmed in cloth. I have some vx220 cloth seats with the normal hole where you get in and out. I don’t want leather seats but would consider either putting in a new matching section or re trimming both seats in a different colour cloth.
Local to Milton Keynes would be a bonus but have spare seats to use and am willing to drop them off any where within reason.

Using somewhere that has experience of this type of seats would be preferable.

Lotus trim shop is much better priced than you might think. Have a look on the Hanger111 or B&C sites: I think they both have the trim shop prices on line.
Alternatively just look in Yellow Pages?

don't know how cheap they'll be, but might be worth giving Allon Whites in Cranfield a call, they've got an ex Aston Martin trimmer working for them

or Bell & colvill do retrimming http://www.bell-colvill.co.uk/LotusShop/Directory....

I got the factory to quote me for a partial re-trim on my Excel. They came in at 1/3 the price of any other quote and the guy who did the job was one of the team who did it when the car first went through the factory.

Seriously - try the factory service. They know the cars better than anyone else and they genuinely care about them too.

Martyn Beddow 01455 847900 comes highly recommended.
ETS he is near the Noble factory at Barwell so not too far away from you.
