Happy to oblige mate ------------- My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with a girl who saw Ferris pass-out at 31 Flavours last night. I guess it's pretty serious. |

There is a company in Stockton (may be a bit too far for you) but he does full car interior retrims, mainly classics but he will do most jobs and his reputation is good! Not had any work done by him myself but I would take my car there if I needed it to be done. The company's called coverall, dont have a Tel im afraid... ------------- '99 E39 528i SE Manual Scwartz black with Grey leather In the words of SPACEBALLS 'may the schwartz be with you...' :-)

there is a company called kish in Sunderland
http://www.yell.com/ucs/UcsSearchAction.do;jsessionid=b4f3DLOp7v-e?keywords=&companyName=kish&location=Sunderland&searchType=classic&broaderLocation=TYNE+AND+WEAR%7CNORTH+EAST+ENGLAND%7CENGLAND%7CUNITED+KINGDOM&ooa=on - click me I went to their place once to get a quote ended up getting a new interior from somwere else instead. I think one of the local stealers use them. they has some bloody expensive cars outside. A friend of mine got his car re trimmed in leather by them and it was good |

Kish in Sunderland is the only one I would use, he has just done the interior of my brothers 300z and the workmanship is second to none. He has a very good reputation all over the Country, some of his work includes several of David Beckhams cars. One thing I will say is that he is one of the best so it won`t be cheap, & you may have to wait a while to be booked in, as the saying goes, " the best things come to them who wait " ------------- Current Car 1988 Diamond Black 635CSi

Chris, I found Kisk VERY expensive a couple of years ago, ended up cheaper changing the seats. There's filling station on the A167 just south of Chester Moor next to the Red Lion at Plawsworth. In the shop's Station Upholsterers. They recovered Darren's seat on his E34 a while back and he was happy with the work. Bloke's a bit odd though - probably too much glue fumes over the years Cheers, Mick ------------- Current E30 325i, E36 M3 Evo, Previous E21 320/4, E9 3.0 CSA, E12 525, E30 320i, E28 528i, E34 535is, E30 318i, E28 525e, E30 325i Touring, E30 Baur 327i |

I was at Northumbrian Leather yesterday getting a quote for the E34. First class work but he has no space available to May. He did show us a Bugatti Teal he had just finished in Aligator Skin.
