We're definitely interested in the seats, and door cards/console if still available. Only issue is transport as we've not yet got our estate on the road and are running about in our ZX still. Having said that, we'd be happy to pay costs if you could see your way to either dropping them at Congleton (south Cheshire) or perhaps if that's too far for you we could arrange to meet halfway, around Cannock or similar & then just fit in/on the ZX what we can stuff in.

Either way we'd love to buy the seats as it'd be a nice upgrade and kid-friendly too, easier to keep clean! :) will send a PM also, let us know what you think anyway. Hope to hear back soon, cheers. Dan & Emma

I have back bench, front seats in cloth spare, 8 wheels with good (nearly new) tyres, engine block, auto gear box, panels etc etc etc, space is a big problem, I will be looking at getting rid of a shell this summer thats been sitting on drive way for over a year.
Its a shame that we don't have a shed/warehouse some where were all those parts could be stored all together at one spot.

It's a shame that storage is such a problem for so many of us, if we manage to get the leather then there'll be some very clean velour seats we need to either rehome or find space to store more permanently. I think we need to build a 2nd storey/loft on the garage then there'd be plenty of room for "spares" :)

PM returned with thanks James. And thanks for the kind offer kingp, the verdict from the mrs is that we can only afford the seats anyway not the door cards etc at least for the moment so the ZX should just about suffice with a bit of ingenuity (anyone play tetris?) :D

It should fit in a ZX if the rear seats and shelf are removed.

Having the seats in an L shape should help get the fronts in and the the tears just slot in on top :D

Oh yes, Toby from fcforum days of old came over to the island in his 406 coupe and we got an entire Xantia Activa interior in it leaving both front seats free for passenger and driver. Zx should be no problem.

Just a thought, instead off going up to make more space, how about going down build a cellar under the garage.
