I have my ocatvia vrs on order and i am thinking of getting some front seeat covers to use just for travelling to work and back everyday.

Just wondering how bad the front seats fray or wear over time?

Also does anyone have any information about some decent front seat cover for the octy mk 2?

Ive had a look on the forums but there doesnt appear to be a difinitive option?

Thanks

I own a December 2006 Octy vRS.

It's got 63k miles on the clock.

I use it daily to travel to work and numerous other trips throughout the week.

In all honesty the upholstery still looks in great condition.

Could maybe do with a wash, bring up some of the colours.

But there are no splits or major areas of fraying - they really do still look great.

Seat covers and side airbags? Don't think they mix too well...although you can get airbag compatible ones i'm not sure i trust them.

Re the seats i scotchguarded mine the day i got them so should hold up ok. There were a few people that have had the side bolster collapse but this is under warranty and touch wood hasn't happened to mine.
