Do you remember all those posts I did years ago about me wanting brown interior stuff? Looks like everyone's catching up now!!!  

The cloth on those seats looks great. Do you have the sticker in the boot to tell us all what code it is so we can name it please???

nice motor i love the colour.the trim looks well.nice set of rims.

Yes the interior is mint. There are no rips, tears or anything and no signs of sagging.  It wasn't as clean as I wanted it to be due to the normal wear and tear obviously due to use over the past 20 years. For the past couple of years I've left it in for a valet and always got the same story "we've cleaned the seats the best we can and thats as good as you'll get".

So this year I started to think silly thoughts of leather interiors, recovering seats etc etc.    Then I worried that it would be ruined. Instead we took everything out and spent about 6 hours scrubbing it with a brush and 1001 carpet shampoo followed by the aquavac. It is now spotless. I was going to buy a carpet set too but again managed to get it cleaned well and then put some mats on top.  So other than the wheels (I still have the originals) everything is standard.

I'll have a look for a sticker tomorrow but I'm about 90% sure it isn't there.  

If the sticker isn't in there and you have the original dealer supplied hand books/service records etc, I think another copy of the lable may in in there.

Love your cabby 8)

Well you learn something new every day.  The sticker is indeed in the boot and on the Service Schedule.  8O   This is what it says:

Engine Code letters/No. Gearbox code letters
Paint No/Interior Equipment
Optional Extras

It then has these codes but they aren't lined up correctly to the above.  They mean nothing to me but maybe some of you who know what you're talking about can decipher them:

EX         AEN
LA8Y      CN

the colour la8y is bronze grey metallic i think
