Hello, did you have your steering wheel refurbished?

 

No its original, its from the same car as the seats and dash top.  Sold the cream one :)

Hi just out of curiosity any chance you would tell me the cost of repair or give me a rough idea of price as I would need almost the same work doing and was the work done to a high standard

Door cards turned up in time from Newtons too!

All fitted! Just one thing missing from those door cards - the door handles - oops!

Very nice car and the interior is stunning...

 

I am searching for a similar leather gear knob in porcelain green matching my interior.

Do you have an idea where I can find one?

To be honest it was just pure luck that we found the blue one.  It happened to be on an auto jumble stall at Himley last year, still in its original Rover packaging and with the blue gaiter!

 

We did then get another blue one from the same guy the seats/dashtop and wheel came from, so always worth keeping an eye on ebay.

Thanks for the info, I will keep my eye on Ebay.
