Rather than buy a 2nd hand one for £200 which might not be in pristine condition you may be better getting it recoved

There were two ivory ones on Ebay in the last week/ten days so worth watching out for.

Is it just dirty or is it torn/damaged? If just dirty it might be worth trying Autoglym Interior cleaner with a light scrubbing action using a soft nail brush or similar then hose it off with clean water - admittedly it was summer when I did mine so dried fairly quickly. When I bought my car the rear load cover looked like it had been used by the local coalman, lots of black dirty splodges - it was so bad the seller didn't show it to me at first. After cleaning it came up like new. Worth a shot before splashing out on a new one. |

As mentioned above, they are reasonably expensive second hand.

Thanks all for the replies. It's not that it's dirty as such, but it looks like it's been scrubbed so hard what little finish there was has gone and it's now horrible hard rough plastic. Having had a L322 before and knowing what it should look like, it's a mess! I saw the advert on ebay for the parchment one - how close would that be to ivory? I like the idea of recovering too. I would like to replace with the correct colour, but may stick to black as it won't need cleaning as often. I will keep an eye on ebay.... |

i think i'd be inclined to just cover it in vinyl.

When i had my l322 I had mine recovered in exact ivory leather by auto upholsterers in London and looked brilliant and perfectly matched ivory leather.

Parchment is very close to Ivory, but it is slightly darker. I could not find an Ivory one for ours and ended up buying a very good Parchment one.
