Thanks a lot Stempies, they're absolutely brilliant.

The seats in this look amazingly snug!
If you 're gonna do an all-cream interior, that's how you do the dash. Very cool.

The earliest I've seen have been on 1993 K plates.

My LE is a bit of an oddity as it was a Mercedes Benz company car and wasn't registered till 1994.
