You don't need to go to the expense of a new seat - which will probably be about �300 or more from a dealers. Try hunting down your local automotive upholsterer and they should be able to source the matching fabric and mend the seat for you. You might try the yellow pages or look for ads of someone nearby in a classic car mag. Also ask around local places that restore classic cars.

Try some car breakers on the internet. I've bought seats before and reckon you should get a good matching one for �25-�45.
