Thanks Java. I ummed and arred about it for ages before taking the plunge, I'm not sure which way I'd go if I had such an early cat as yours though. Best of luck either way!

As others have said, what a colour! Bet it shimmers lovely in the sun, properly deep colour.

Also, love this photo!

The roof console I picked up from Stu at Beaulieu fits a treat, need to decide what to put in it... I might redo the headlining in black alcantara / suede as well...
