   gti half leathers usually go for around 120- 150, wouldnt pay 300 for them lol.
   
   can get 306 seats in with a few little modifications plus they are a very tight fit.
   
   if your good with a welder etc , you could make your own seat subframes and put virtually any seat in your car lol

   dont pay £300
   you can get a mint set for £200 these days. i tried selling a set recently and took ages. ended up selling the front and back separetly for £130 altogether.
   
   yes they are worth it though, so much comfier than standard seats. only problem with them though is the suade tends to wear away

   They look really nice once they are in the car, I definetly wouldn't pay £300 for them, I would say £200 at a push but only if they are in mint condition.

   if you want to stick any seats in, and are making up sub frames, consider the Xsara VTS seats, as they are so so comfy and wont be too different a sub frame to modify.
   
   though £300 is a tad steep for a set of GTI's. For that money look for a set of original Saxo full leathers, was an optional extra that not a lot of people opted for, but are bang on and you slip into them

   GTI leathers are not worth £300, unless they are absolutely mint. Keep looking around, obviously 106owners is better to keep an eye out there. Keep an eye out an something will pop up. Don't be afraid to get something that looks a little worn, you will be amazed at what some leather treatment products can do. I wouldn't by anything with and rips/tears in however, too much to get repaired.

   I know someone who is local to me, who is selling his 'mint' set of full GTI leathers for £200.
