Can they pick you up from North Walsham station?

If not a taxi from Walsham to Aylsham would be cheaper than from Norwich.

07 Alfa Spider 939

If you can't be a good example, then you might as well be a terrible warning

You may get a nasty shock when you look at train fares to Norwich :(
Are you sure you don't have a local LECer willing to give you a lift? :wink:

Maybe you can try Auto leathers.. they are offering leather seat cover for any kind of cars. If you are a UK based you can visit them at 16 Chingford Road, Walthamstow. London E17 4PJ but if you are from another country and you wish to reach them, you can just visit their site or search in google and i'm sure you can find them.. hehe hope this will help you dude :)

cheers

Dropped her off today with Paul at http://www.moorestrim.com/ -nice chap and is hoping he find his mum's signature on the inside of seats or someone she worked with! He is going to send update photos over the next couple of weeks - can't wait!!

I am going to use Hoods Galore for my retrim. Simon is the chap to speak to and is very friendly and helpful. He will be covering virtually everything in leather for me; do mention I referred you if you call him, it always helps people to know that their good attitude pays off in future business from LEC, or anywhere…..

Moores Trim - Paul Moore's parents worked for lotus and his mum did the trim for M100's before she set up on her own. She was recommended on LEC but only works part time for Paul now - I think she is doing steering wheel and gear knob. So I'm having seats, door panels and pockets,hand brake and gear stick gators, steering wheel and gear knob done all in these colours. It's around £1,900

They look fantastic, great detailing with the yellow stiching - should look stunning with the blue exterior.

I like them but the orange is a lot closer to yellow than I was expecting.

I think it might just be the light in the camera shot - think the close up is closest to real colour...
