Re: [DML] Robin Hood Cars/DMC Leather

[Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxx>]

Or the new option Paul Salsbury has arranged (though it is not official as yet) is to get the seats re-skinned at the place who originally skinned them the first time around. Paul has had his seats done, and I'm next in the queue :-)

They also said some of the really early cars had full leather, hand-stitched interiors. Since my dash, centre console and binnacle are in such poor shape, I'm tempted....

It seems like Robin Hood Cars purchased "a lot" of DeLorean seat covers which could then be used in their car (which is based on the Lotus 7 or Caterham). I think they use the leather for trimming the interior on their car. From what I know, Robin Hood cars where reluctant to sell any, and sold only "some" of their stock to DOC UK. Which means there are still original seat covers left, but expect to pay a lot to get the rest from them.
