That's a gt with gt gauges , you can put them in analogue cars and moved the difflocks to the cubbyhole . A few have done it but there's other more useful gauges to fit , Matt cannon has the best set up of gauges fitted in his

Another question is- does the coupe interior have heated elements? If not, you will lose that function too. I imagine your leather interior has (even if not fully functional at present)

Slowly, but surely, you would degrade the car to something far less than a decent quattro, for a lot of financial effort.
Is the leather in good condition, or does it need some attention itself? It may be that some proper leather care would quickly change your opinion.

You know I don't know ! I've been in a few but never paid much attention as I'm always tooting up how much I would get if I broke it up for the useful parts

Looking at the photos, I'd say the coupe stuff has no elements. Certainly, there's no control panel where there would be in a ur. I don't know too much about coupe spec, so open to correction.

well bottom line is that i want a car that is comfortable and fast. i have FAST and now just want comfortable. this interior looks fabulous. i have no intention of selling the leather interior and would keep it in case, god forbid i ever sell the car.

god, i'm SO middle aged!!

My husband has that interior in his coupe gt. They aren't heated either. I have a weird brown interior with stripey seats. The bolster needs repair too but is quite sun faded. Would love to find a replacement but never seen one for sale

Hello I recently had my coupe cloth Drivers seats repaired. An amazing job I thought it was a different seat when I went to pick it up!! I can give you the details of the chap who repaired if you like.

Car is currently for sale on ebay with pictures of the seat if you want to see the repair.

Hiya, yes could you post the link please? how much did it cost just as a rough guide?

audiblair · 16-01-12, 07:01 PM

It cost me £60 which considering the state of the seat was a bargain. Here is his email address classic trim@yahoo.co.uk. Chaps name is Tony.

Did you look at the photos on ebay ? I would like a honest opinion from you or other forum members on whether I am asking too much or have I pitched it about right. My add is for the Tornado red GT.Comments will not offend good or bad.
