So my 325i convertible came with retrofitted Black motorsport bubble leather. I'm not a fan of dark interior on a black car so i am looking to change them at some point. I know these seats are ridiculously rare, only being fitted to the 250 sebrig grey motorsports, and so I'd just like a rough idea what to expect for them, as the only set ive ever seen for sale are these which are a bit of a joke for the state that theyre in. (also have just been reduced by £400.)

The seats are in as good a condition as you could hope for. I have all door cards as well (the rear quarter pannels are a bit tatty), and rear headrests.

The leather on the fronts has been completely retrimmed, and the material is in exceptional condition and almost look as new. the rears are mostly original leather, but very good condtion, ill let the pictures do the talking.

Only reason i'm asking on here instead of just putting them on ebay is that i'm looking to swap them for a cardinal red interior, or similar and just want an idea of value.

They are worth as much as someone is willing to pay. However I sold I complete mint (I mean mint) set few years back for £600. The link of the ones on eBay came out a Motorsport that I previously owned few years ago pinkeye and are over priced in my opinion seeing the condition they are in.

Stick them on eBay with a reserve of £1000 and I think they'll make £2000.

I think £1000 is a lot of money but if someone wants that interior to complete their sebring grey motorsport then who knows what they would pay.

If it was me I would probably be happy swapping them for a mint, and I do mean mint, set in the colour I would like.

You will be looking at £1500 to retrim so bare that in mind if you pick up a rough set.
