At least you don't look like a fat git, Simon. :?

Apart from the mugshots, well pleased with that! It's actually got a proper Alpina boot spoiler on now, and no rust. It's aaaaaaall coming together... winkeye

I reckon they were early E30 Recaros, probably out of a 323i, or even an Alpina - they are the same pattern as my interior, which is an early check pattern, not houndstooth. Ad says they were out of an '88 car, but I think they must have been in something else originally.

If they're the same pattern, I'm interested; not bothered whether they're heated or not, but was after these because I have cloth from my Sports seats which I could have used to repair them. Bugger.

What pattern are they?

Good article, nearly pissed myself looking at those mugs.
Was it cold Alec or does your heater not work in that old pina? winkeye

I got the impression you love speed Simon.

Cheers Gareth.
