Despite the name, Britpart covers are very good. Darren

Martin,
Take a look at the seat covers here: I am ordering a pair- they are good quality, proven and the service has been fantastic: http://liupholstery.co.uk/ |

I'll second the recommendation for Britpart seat covers (not sure who actually makes them, but they have a little red and white umbrella on them). We've had a pair in our 100" challenge motor for about 6 years and no wear or tear at all... seats underneath stray dry when the car or you are wet. Easy to wipe down too.
I now have a pair in my 90 too. (the front cover set comes with the 2 main seats and the middle one, but neither of our motors has a middle seat) Our blog - http://landytravels.com/ Yorkshire Off Road Club - http://www.yorkshireoffroadclub.net |

Waterproof seat covers - Inka
Our middle and 3rd row seats get a fair amount of grief. We have 3 kids and inevitably 2 more of their pals in the car most nights. Food, bogeys, dribble and other excretings have found their way onto the seats in the past. I toyed with a set of LR seat covers but found the price would cover a weeks holiday in the UK ( no joke ). So I continued my search. It seemed Inka had a good reputation. It also seems they manufacture the LR ones too. I ordered a set direct from Ebay at £39.95 per row. Excellent service firstly, secondly excellent fit and quality. They look great. One Mc Donald's drink spill saved and one toilet stop where we didnt manage to stop in time .......... I think they've earned their keep in one journey 1951 80" S1 2.0 1995 110 300TDI 1995 90 300TDI |

thanks for the ideas, not sure what I'll get though...
Britpart don't come with headrest covers and Inka don't appear to fit pre 2007 models or supply a front middle seat cover either. Might end up going with the Turtle Covers, seen some reasonable reviews elsewhere, surprised (and a little worried) that nobody on here has any comment to make on them. Will report back in due course. M. 1996 300Tdi Defender 110 |

It's such a shame the bodgepart ones don't come with headrest covers but it's not beyond the capabilities of anyone to make some out of the spare material of the middle seat cover when you don't have a middle seat fitted. I managed it and there is just enough material there to do the job.

Have to say it but the genuine LR ones are bob on.
Yes expensive but you pay for what you get and hey ho you can't take it with you.  You only have one life, live it....forget the cost.
