anyone know where i could get my seats repaired, the passenger one has some quite nasty dents in it, where it appears the previous owner has maybe stood on it with a high heel!
preferably in either Hull or York, i have had a look round internet but cant find anything frown

I'd like a few scuffs repairing too, but can't seem to find anyone either.

Any suggestions gratefully received...

Tends to specialise in bikes but will be worth a call. He recovered a 1980 XT500 for me earlier this year. Great work.

D L Barr and sons in Hull, Havn't used them myself but they have been around a while so must be fairly good.

Not meaning to take over the thread, but I know plenty of people that could retrim, and if I wanted that I'd go to MJ Interiors as they've done brilliant work that I know of for the last 12 years and have been going a lot longer than that.

BUT I just want a few scuffs repairing, anyone know anywhere that can do that. I've had it done on my suite at home but that was through the insurance and never knew the name of the company. There must be some way to find someone that can do it.

I used Don Barr for my elise roof last year. Very happy with the work but as stated, not the cheapest!

I think there was a place in one of the units on the way out of poole heading towards otley. The old mill buildings on the left. Was it connected with the Aston specialist?


Its a good few years since I lived there though so maybe gone now.

I`ve used Junior a few times and have never been dissapointed with the quality of workmanship or the price smile

Dave's work is absolutely excellent.

He retrimmed a few M series TVRs for me in the past. Our S Turbo was retrimmed by David 18 years and 50K mile ago and it still look very good.

Highly recommended!!

Seat surgeons of York do a fantastic job.
They are just off the A59 near the York ring road.

I have heard a few positive things with regards to seat sugeons, however i'm not sure if they do repairs or just complete recovers, they're web site is very impressive though

http://www.theseatsurgeons.com

im sure i heard that they sub it out to china or somewhere for the work to be done and as such are very reasonable for complete recovers,

that could be complete bks mind

The bloke in charge is very helpful and yes he does get leather from the far east, i think China although he said he was looking around for other suppliers over there.
I had a complete interior fitted to a Skoda Fabia VRS and was very happy with the results. It looked better than original Skoda!
Very good quality.
I am sure I saw them fixing teared seats when i was there.
