| Briskodian  | cloth retrim? A Leather retrim is around £800 and alhough it looks great I can't justify spending that much cash when i'll only have the car for 2 to 3 years ( I do lots and lots of miles per year) Does anyone have an idea on how much a cloth retrim would be? The amount of work is the same but the material costs less. If it was around the £350 mark then i'd definitely get it done. |

| Re: cloth retrim? All you can do is get quotes and see what comes up. In some ways, I think maybe just snaffle some Ibiza or Polo seats and get the doors trimmed to suit?

| Re: cloth retrim? For the difference in cost between cloth and leather, I would still go with the leather. Come resale time it should add value to your car.
