Default Thats it.. The leather has to go...

Today was the first hot day I've done a reasonably long journey in the scoob.. Its got leather but no aircon.. god knows what the person who original spec'ed the car was on!

The leather looks AWESOME but its just not practical without a/c.. I'm looking now to swap for the standard turbo 2000 interior and some cash I'd prefer the late spec seats with the better material if poss...

So I'm kind of open to offers, if someones got some turbo 2000 seats and door cards in good nick and wants to swap them for these, make me an offer:

Thats a fair old job! Got to fit the compressor, condenser, dryer, extra fan, evaporator, piping, loom and then get the bugger gassed... might as well sell up and buy another car with a/c

Here's a revolutionary idea... open the window
