Seat cover colour?
Been looking at seat covers lately, and come to the conclusion canvas is the way forward for various reasons

But what I’m stuck on is the colour! Sand or Black?

I have a Santorini black 110 and while the black covers would fit in, I really like the sand colour but also at the back of my mind think it doesn’t go.

An insignificant question I know but what would you chose? 2016 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 TDV8
2010 110 XS Utility 2.4TDCI
2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 (gone)
2007 Discovery HSE TDV6 (gone)
1993 110 csw 200 tdi (gone)
1994 90 HT 300 tdi (gone)
1994 discovery 300tdi (gone)
90 hybrid 3.5 v8 (gone)
Range rover bobtail 3.5 v8 (gone)

I’ve had three sets of sand on various defenders and they’ve always brightened up the interior hugely . Having said that if yours is black have you looked at the Melville and Moon grey ones , or Escape gear charcoal ? They’d look really smart and would stop it looking to Goth !! https://www.instagram.com/hustynminepark/

Another thumbs up for the Melvill and Moon seat covers. I honestly think they will outlive the Landy.

I have Escape Gear sand coloured covers on my Galway Green Defender. Galway green is very dark, almost black in some lighting conditions and I think they look great. Euro-Leafing to infinity and beyond.....

I had the same dilemma, I opted for black on all 3 rows (mine is a silver 110).

The Rottweiler turns them sand every time she jumps on them with here muddy feet....... but they return to black.

I think that if I had bought sand she would have turned them permanently near black!!!

Cheers

Thanks for the feedback

I really like the Melville Moon covers but they are at a premium, that said everyone has said they are top quality item that will last many years.

Escape gear covers look good too no as expensive and maybe not as good as the Melville Moon but still a sound purchase

Still on the fence with colour Shocked Rolling Eyes Sand will brighten up the interior as said but charcoal or black will stay cleaner longer.

Maybe a Poll?
