1996 216 Cabriolet with a rip in the drivers seat. Not surprising after 106,000 miles! Local garage happy to effect a repair but needs the specification of the upholstery. - photo attached.
Can anyone give the pattern deign description or the code reference and the details of any known supplier?
The garage seemed to think that someone in the Nederlands was the sole supplier! Does no-one in the UK stock or supply upholstery materials for the Cabriolet 216? Many thanks in anticipation.

But no Black piccadilly - what your material is called. I've never seen stock anywhere of that material in 20 years of looking on and off.....
Re: Upholstery repair
The pattern is called "Piccadilly" and Rover referred to that colourway in their sales brochures as "Ash Grey".
