| I can’t be doing with light coloured seats etc, as others have said, they don’t wear well. I’ve also got black seats, trim and doors with a light coloured headlining and pillars - perfect. |

| Mine is a late 322 but came up with some insurers as a 405 - more affordable quotes once that was rectified. |
