It does look nice, and probably the going rate, although you could easily buy a complete non-road-going Xm for that!

...for sure; maybe even a road going one for less!!

More than likely! However im not that lucky

In the first picture the complete interior looks great...........

Then look at the drivers seat in the second picture.........

The passenger seat in the third picture looks like new though..........

I noticed the drivers seat is looking a little tired. Although im sure a good clean and a bit of leather care would bring it up better.

Nice addition to an XM though, id be tempted if i had a dark coloured Xm, i think it would suit it well.

Hi All

I think the foam in the side edges of the drivers seat has deformed and am not so sure that the front seats would clean up fully to match the rest of the leather. Cream leather is not easy to keep in good order. Still it is better that the torn/worn seuede on most high mileage grey leather Mk2 drivers seats.

I find Xm interiors very hard wearing, mine has done 83000 miles and it still looks like brand new inside. Not even any wear on the drivers seat.

That drivers seat does look a bit of a funny shape.

Hi John

As a matter of interest can the front seats be swapped across to even out any wear. Non side airbag ones I should have said!

Robert

Hi Robert

The two front seat base squabs are handed and cannot be swapped between the seats. It is possible to swap the seat back covers, On-the-cut did it with his drivers seat but he needed to source a donor passenger seat cover to replace his ripped drivers one. When the foam in the seat base is gone soft and deformed it is possible recover a good cloth one. I have found the seat upholstery tedious work but fairly rewarding once finished. Before long I want to start on sorting out heated seats for most of the cars which will be mean a round of carpets and underfloor wiring followed by the seat upholstery to repair/insert the heating elements.

Hi John,
Thanks for the low-down on that. My seats are good but the drivers one is more used looking than the passenger seat. Will keep a note of your advice for possible future use.
Regards,

Robert.

Well I have aquired the seats.. still to collect

These seats didn't sell first time around and I got to thinking how nice they would look in my Xm . I got in touch with the seller and they were relisted. However I've been spending a bit on the BX this week and thought swmbo might not be too impressed if I tell her I've just spent 200 quid on some leather seats as well

You're going to have a very rare XM Stuart, it's the first one I've seen.

What colour's your car?

I thought they would suit a 'champagne gold car', although there aren't many about.

People keep telling me to scrap my Prestige and put the black seats in th VSX. Not only am I mad and do not want to scrap the Prestige (LOL) but I think black seats will look really crap in a VSX with grey carpet and headliner. These cream seats however I decided might look quite nice. However I am glad someone here picked them up, no way can I afford them. I did mail the seller however and I may end up getting a bumper and a wing from him to fix up the front of the VSX.
