LR seat covers
If anyone is thinking of getting the LR branded seat covers—don’t! Just got the LR seat cover for the second row, and they are about the same quality as a cheap plastic suit bag you might pick up at a dry cleaners. Cant believe the amount of money they charge for this utter piece of junk product. Going to have to splurge on the Melville and Moon ones I guess or just rely on the dog sling to keep the seats from getting trashed. I’m amazed LR would put their name on this crap product.

As ridiculous as they are, I went ahead and put them on the back seats since it’s mostly dogs that are back there, and I have a dog sling on top as well. On the occasion when my daughter sits back there I hope she won’t mind too much. They have all the character of Saran Wrap, but at least they’ll keep dog drool and fur off the seats. I’d never want these on the front seats though since they look awful and are a bit slippery as well as render the seat cooling useless. I don’t know where LR gets off charging more than $100 for this product.

$100 sounds cheap for Land Rover. A pair of Puma front seat covers is over £150 in the UK (that's about $30,000 I think....)

But when you know the LR Puma ones are made by Inka, who will sell you the same ones (which are very good) without the LR label for £50, you're well away.

Remarkable. Mind you, as a single new headlight is the price I'd normally pay for a second hand car with several useful years of life left in it, I probably shouldn't be surprised.

I've bought a few sets over the years and always buy Inka seta covers as they are who supply landrover at a fraction of the price just without the logo on them.

I saw this vid of some Melvill and Moon ones which might be pricey but damn they're nice. When I finally stop procrastinating and order a HT 90 I'll be sniffing some out.

I’m waiting for a quote for a set of the basic ones in Sand, when they email me back I’ll let you know Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Seat covers will be on my shopping list, I don’t trust that LR has rectified the water staining issues for 21MY.

I always went with LRs own ones in my Discos but Defender ones don’t seem as good. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

No sign of stains on my 90 yet so maybe they have done something but I did get them stain guarded just in case. Still think I’ll get some Melvill and Moon ones though for the dog jumping in and out

I’ve got some on my Puma 90 and they are worth every penny. I’m a farmer and never had to take them off to wash - they just seem to clean themselves.
