I wasn't keen on the sand/black seating in my panda cross and given that Doctorchris told me they got dirty very easily I ordered some tailor made seat covers and am very pleased with them. They seem well made and were easy enough to fit too. They were from CLN, they sell on ebay as well as direct through their website and although not cheap they are a really good fit and aren't really noticable as covers. Various colours/styles on their website, I went for black avorio - hopefully it will hide some of the mess the little un creates!!

That is a definite improvement over the iffy colour combination of sand/grey on a black car.

Apart from a couple of small creases, from the photos they look OE

I always fancied a Fabia vRS for teaching in but was put off by the pale interior. With a set of these covers, that wouldn't be an issue.

Those covers are an excellent idea.
I've just taken a look at the pale parts of my seats and they look badly stained. That's without the benefit of transporting crayon and sticky sweets/drinks armed rugrats.

Your right they aint cheap..

Thanks all for the comments!


@leanmeanracing - I had an octavia vRS, the seats were a bind to keep clean and that was pre rugrats for me! At least twice a year I needed to give them a good scrub with upholstery cleaner to keep them looking ok, not something you can easily do when your car is your income!

@PNL - the link to the JC covers is a lot cheaper,I looked at them before I ordered but unfortunately I have the airbags in the front seats so the ones advertised aren't suitable whereas the CLN ones are. They basically have a velcro seam down where the airbags are. The JC website advertises covers that are suitable for airbags and although don't give an actual price it does say that their range for the panda starts from £119. No idea why the set advertised on ebay is so much cheaper than that, maybe a customer return?? They are probably a 'bargain buy' for someone, especially as you recommend their quality

Well its a bidding war and not an outright price..but i guess you would have got them for £55 if you had placed the bid in the last 10 seconds ..they would ask you when you forward the details to them about the covers and then you would tell them about the air bags in the seat ..its only a small alteration when they make the covers up for people..

Lol. Mine were more expensive than that... The panda was just too new to get proper seat covers when I bought mine. I took my car to a place which took the seats out, made up a pattern and made up your seat covers to fit. Cost £220. But then again, the dealership met half that cost as they made an oopsie and ordered the wrong colour seats for my Panda. Must say I found it hilarious the day I picked the car up. Me and the husband went into the showroom laughing our legs off while pointing out the mistake. We were told that we were mistaken, but then he looked up the ordered and went "Oops!" Lol. I didn't like either option of colours available at the time, yellow or blue. So I have nice charcoal grey covers now instead. Excuse the pics complete with baby seat (they were taken for something else)...
