Re: Closed "Water Ingress", and new leather...

Superb ! now get those vacuum cleaner on those carpets :-)

[browning l]

Thank you, all, for your nice words.

The headliner material is a sort of a suede, or suede-finished, fabric the factory chose and installed in the restoration. I didn't ask for anything special, so assume it is their standard lining.

When winter is over, and salt no longer being put down, the carpets will suit you!

[Nick Challacombe]

Ah! thought I recognised it, comes from Matilan via Tata by the roll!

[GREG]

Slow down Nasty Nick - I have just had the same suede headlining added to my beautiful 411 S1 in fag ash grey. Very classy and I may consider the side sun visors if we ever get some again in Yorkshire :-)

[GREG]

Sorry Cass, I meant cigarette ash grey. I forgot that the word fag can be offensive to people in Lancashire !

[Nick Challacombe]

Now Greg, we both know we had fags at school, and grey was not the colour.
Just bright pink as the slipper came down!
What do you need sunshades up there for, I though Mafia glasses were in
Vogue!.

[GREG]

Strange language English and that about exhausts the meanings for fag.

I believe the word "set" has the most meanings although I like the word "one" , when Charles says to Camilla " Would one like one to give one one " :-) Now that's a posh chat up line !

And quite so Greg! Just think how that quip would have gone down at Gay Pride. Ooooh, you little naughty.

I had my 408 lined in the same or similar material.
Its called Alcantara. I've been told it's very resistant to heel marks, but
why any-one would want to walk on it is beyond me!
Happy New Year,
David
