Looking for some opinions (seats)

[rip]

Re-trimming the OE seats will cost me at least $700,

I had mine done about 4 years ago & I think it cost me around £700-£800.
Consider having seat heaters fitted at the same time. There are a really nice addition.

Got the car back from the re-trim on Friday, just in time to get to Tennessee for SpringTime in the Smokies.

Make sure you stop by my place in Nashville before you hit the smokies. Still working on getting mine ready for the summer. New top, paint and carpet and my M100 will be better then new. It would be nice to meet a M100 owner that is pretty close to me. I've never seen another M100 driving around, only seen them at LOG.

Looks very nice, I like the pattern.

Mind sharing how much it cost roughtly?

I'm looking to get mine done soon, but I have no idea what the possible costs are.

The seats, door cards and floor mats cost me a little over $750 USD at a local shop.

My trip to Tennessee was this past weekend. Didn't get anywhere near Nashville though.

I've also never seen another Elan on the road. I've seen them at LOG, and there's another one in Jackson MS owned by a guy named Mike Glore who used to be on here. I've seen him with his at the annual English Motoring Club or Mississippi show in Nachez. I also saw one when I took mine to a show in Birmingham. There's a guy there with a Calypso Red one. Can't remember his name.

Some day I'd like to get together with another owner to drive the Tail of the Dragon again. This time with GoPros. Maybe you'd want to go to next year's Springtime in the Smokies show? That's the one I just went to this weekend in Townsend. It's only a very short drive to the Dragon from there.

I've been to the Townsend car show but it was about 6 or so years ago. I'm fimiliar with the area because I go to the University of Tennessee which is in Knoxville. Please let me know when the next one is and I'll go. Their are a few other Lotus members in the Nashville area and Knoxville that I keep in touch with so let me know when your in TN so we can try and meet up

I use the Gliptone and have had really great results, will use this to change the S2000 seats to the dark M100 grey
