   hi all,
   If you were to have a leather interior in your Saxo what colour or colours would you choose?
   I know it would depend on the colour that your car is, but I would really like to know as many people's opinion as possible, even if your not planning on getting your interior done please let me know your thoughts as it would be really helpful.
   You might of seen other post from me or guessed that I do leather retrims, please let me know if you have any Q's, thanks for your time.

   black doesnt need cleaning much, creme does lol.
   I have a red and black colour scheme in mine. so id have black leather with red trim. that would look sexy
   depends on how many times you want to clean it, how much you wanna spend etc!

   I would have to go for black and blue. I will have some of your leather seats from you soon fella. Just abit strapped for cash at the moment. I am always looking at them on ebay though, they are so nice! Great job you do.

   I'm going to be after some leather trimming probably at the end of the year, I'd like black round the sides with like a purpley blue down the centre, kind of like the ZetecS colour. Any ideas how much we would be looking at roughly for the rear and front seats of a Saxo, mate?

    hi all,
    cheers for all the replies & pics, but still would like alot more people to let me know there thoughts please.
    hi chip, my prices sure £499 for the seats, £550 with the front doorcards or £595 for all 4 doorcards for a standard VTR interior .If mc-trixs interior is full real leather & brand new he got a very good price, Ive got lots of quotes from trim-shops all over the U.K & the normal price is around £900+vat.
    
    ***Please let me know more of your opinions guys***, cheers
