Does anyone know any sites where I can get a quote on leather retrims for my car when I get it? Also for a big time interior spray?

You've got a lot to learn yet havent you 
There really is no point in asking all these questions unless you have the thousands of pounds to back it all up. SO far u mut have spent £10k in your head and only just about to actually buy the car

So have I, i've been working for 5 years and only had the car 4 years. But its still taken me this long to do it. Thats working in London on a pretty good wage too!
If you have £3k+ then go to Carisma.

id rather go to his grandad and get it done for £500 than go to carisma and spend 3K even if the work is better at the end of the day my ass sits in the drivers seats if thats comfy i couldnt give a shit about the rest of the car , Damio do you have to patransie every thing that int engine related on this board , some times you are a proper cock

Eh? What u on about? I aint patronising anyone? The guy has posted loads about bodykit etc so i made a joke.
I then went on to say that after all the retrims i've seen (not like ive seen any Carisma still stands out as being the best quality. Hows that patronising
Besides, were not talking about anything else, i was talking about interiors, not about engines or anything.
Jesus, get over it

i agree it dont look like carismas but if people wanted it to look like carismas then they could state that and get it like one. u cant say no1 matches the quality of carisma but carisma do do things different so they stand out more.

Carisma are good granted, but they also charge a hell of a lot more than anywhere else.
If the quality is only 80% of Carisma's yet only a 3rd of the price then I would loose out on that quality to save 2 grand and spend it else where. Think, how often is someone gonna scrutinise your car??

Tis is true, maybe i should re-phrase it to I personnally think Carisma are the best
MArkurus, u say they are expensive, but you go to Vauxhall or any other manufacture and ask them how much it is to have complete leather in a colour of your choice.
Donnas interior was £6k, which sounds a lot, but then thats everything, TV, DVD, subs, comps, amps, complete leather interior, rounded sub boxes etc.
So in all, its really not that bad. If you know what u want and have a budget.

so basically donna paid far more than her cars worth for just the interior what a complete waste of money

Yeah but I wouldnt go to Vauxhall or such other manufacturer and ask for such a thing, I would get the seats I want and then get them retrimmed somewhere that doesn't cost a fortune.
£6k, OTT in my opinion, just because it was Carisma, there are many good places out there that will do a job to standards near to Carisma an will charge you nowhere near as much. Stupid to go for something just because of the name unless you have the money to do so. I would never throw £6k at the interior of my car, would do all the audio work myself and then take the car somewhere that aint gonna cost me a bomb so they can retrim and do the boot build.
