I think I have found some, cream ? non electric.. I have never seen these in a Xantia, can anyone shed some light?

Probably look quite nice in a dark coloured car...

Cream was available throughout production as an option to black.

Make sure that there's no damage to cream leather as (unlike black leather) you won't be able to get it repaired due to the ageing process.

Not true 8)

Any furniture dealer can tell you how to clean down the leather - and bring it up with a new colour shine. Its even possible to do a colour change - with proff result.

How much are they after for them and where abouts are they located?

Really id love non electric black or a set from a late exclusive with the side airbags in them but if they are cheap enough ill have them

Cheers Jgra1

Im near Doncaster South Yorks but wouldn't mind a bit of travelling to come get them

are they fitted with side airbags at all as my current seats have them but may still be able to find a way to get around having them fitted with some electrical investigation on the circuit

will keeep you posted Kp.. I should be on a train travelling through Doncaster on Fri to pick up my new cloth Mark 2, so I may put seats in that, if not, then i can drive them part way to you - we can sort something out..

Are you missing the Xant then Mez? Withdrawal symptoms? Need a fix do you?

Quite understanable really. I've been using my 205 for a few days whilst my Xantia rested, prepped, ready for its MOT (it passed

) and today getting back into the Xantia was such bliss... Like slowly sipping a fine vintage port and nibbling on a particularly fine piece of mature Stilton

well i got them last night.. cream isnt quite the colour

more like a dull greeny beige.. like a 70's P6 rover

and they need a good clean - nailbrush and soap, and then hide food...

Still, will try them for a while and keep the others just in case.. no seat heaters

Mez, understand.. I am missing the V6 soo much, its still taxed, insured so i may drive it a bit more before i try to sell it

You can always pop over if you fancy mez but its no exec or v6 im afraid
