Featured Replies

Whose bidding for this leather kit for a VRS , I gonna wait for a differenr colour however I would love to see these in a rs. The red ones i've seen in another post look cool.

:thumbup:

Was that grey/black an option on the vRS new? I thought they were all just black.

Is that DK Schwiezer firm the actual firm that supplied the leather to skoda for the vRS new?

They are supposed to be OEM so seem likely. Maybe overseas only though ?

If I'm honest though, compared to the aftermarket seat surgeons, I don't think they are quite as good - but there is a reasonable difference in price.

So I guess you can be contented about it whether you got your leather seats from depending on what your angle is. If I had near to 1K though I definitely would save the hassle and chuck em in to be done.

I'm not seriously that tempted by the colours they have so far - just a bit too "pimped out" for me (could do with the black bit on the main seat) wonder if they have a more matured all black style like all their others !

Oh my god, in answer to your question, everybody it seems.

Someone must really want em - whilst their are 2 exceptional situations which is that

a) the seats are supposedly oem and B) the original cloth seats are really poor.

The LAST TEN items won came to about £750 in total I think, so averaging £75 per set !

So just this item now about 4x the avg final price @ £280 and probably still set to rise !

Wouldn't it be funny if it got even anywhere near half the price of the last TEN auction wins from this seller !?!

I think I will be sensible and let that run its course, since my cloth is probably pretty much pristine compared to the other complaints - probably someone must need this desperately !

There will either be others, or if not what have I really lost.

At least I have saved my time, since that £800 at discounted rate is sounding cheap to seat surgeons for some very nice looking (fully-fitted) seats !

My seats do get marked easily like all of them, but I have cleaned them up so mine are still like new

I don't have the problems with the bolster or frame poking through like others yet - since leather can bring its own set of problems too, not least the heat if you don't have proper seats for it.

they actually look pretty decent

Just seems like a lot compared to the other auctions - plus you have to graft to fit em too.

The bidding war on them seems to have got totally out of hand because of the rules of supply and demand - theres only one listed (issue#1 eagle/2000ad with spinner anybody?)

:o)

It would be interesting if someone who actually knew a little about leather could post the differences between these OEM leathers and the retrofit ones ?

As OEM they are obviously good standard, but there is something about them that just ain't shouting out "Look at these luxury leather seats" to me - and I certainly wouldn't pay £800 for them to be fitted in my car.

Whereas what I've seen on here for retrofits shows off quality handstitching etc, which is what would float my boat about having leather for me !

The seat colours are practical ( I wouldn't be that excited by the style itself though, looks ok and better than cloth but wouldn't be wetting myself over them ).

Sweet baby Jesus there on £350 now, if it was £100 I may have been tempted but that price an dall the effort its getting close to a seat surgeons.

Seat Surgeons is 750, even at £500 these would be a deal!... and no, it's not me bidding on them ;)

These do make me wonder how much seat surgeons would charge for leathers without fitting, or door cards.

They are at £370 now with 3 hrs to go! I reckon they are gonna sell for near the £450 mark. Not worth the hassle IMHO as another £300 at the Seat Surgeons and you can choose your colours/stitching/pattern/etc. and then it is all professionally fitted for you. I know which I would go for.:thumbup:
