There was that other bespoke Tan (brown) leather set that was on Ebay a long while back & discussed on here for a while. I wonder who bought & is using them?

My Cars: Historically, lots of BX hatches/estates in the 90s/00s - 16/19i/17td/19d Recent scruffy diesel n/a estate - "The Red Shed" - is no longer mine.
Sorry to hear you've got to let Grolliffe go, Oscar.
The story on the seats is this:
(1) Man buys standard-spec BX, asks Citroen if leather is an option. No, they say, only on Z, GTi, 16v models.
(2) Man reqally wants leather, so takes seats to professional trimmer, who retrims seats in good thick leather using original seat covers as a template.
(3) Many years later, BX is written off (I think). Man removes seats, bolsters from BX.
(4) Some time later. man decides to sell seats, which are bought on Ebay by Tom and fitted to Grolliffe.
Back on two wheels and pedal power for the moment.
It would be shame to break it Oscar, I would be interested in the grey seats if you do are they sports seats or standard BX seats and is there any door cards?

Ah well, hate to see any BX broken, but needs as must. How are the front driving/fog lamps? If they're half decent I'd like them (Advise by PM Oscar)..

There are door cards but they're not leather....if that's what you meant.
The seats are I think sports - deeper than normal, and the seat part lifts out with a sharp tug.
