Hello chaps

Can anyone tell me if there's anywhere in the UK that can supply new carpet sets for a 1st gen?

I've found a Victoria British catalogue (from the states) thats does complete sets, but in RHD. I wonder if that could be made to fit?

Its only the shabby carpet thats letting the new car down. Silly thing is - its actually cleaner underneath (cant spell just woke up, hungover) than in the cabin. Even the inner wings have shiny new paint, every chassis component powdercoated with new nuts and bolts, poly bushes all round, detailed engine bay.

And dirty, worn, faded/stetched carpet. Bugger.

Dont look in there, see how clean it is underneath!

Yeah, the car's here now. The carpet I have is okish might clean up, but if you have a mint 1 i'd be interested.

Mines grey by the way, wouldnt mind black, but it has to be real good nick either way. Cheers.

Speaking of which, does anyone know if you can still get Mazda mats (or anyones) to fit a gen 1?

Yer standard jobbies are far too big and ruck up all over the place.
