Default Red Monacos

Over the moon today.

As some will know I have been on the hunt for a while now for a set of fairly decent Red Monacos for my project.

I found some and today they arrived. I was always going to get the bolsters repaired because we all know they wear but the set I have bought are really very good in that department so after a good clean they will be good to fit.

I really am chuffed to bits

There is nothing nicer than red Monacos Jon, the red stitching is such a lovely touch.

Yea they do look nice. It was yours that put the thought in my mind to get some. The Alcantara ones are ok but these definitely lift the interior

Nice one.
They sure do Jon there is just something sexy when a Solar Red ZT has red Monaco seats (there should have been no other option but red).

It was thanks to Ian (Redfive) for putting me on the right track is how I came about my set, a local fella who was selling his, such a nice friendly chap too.

Before and after pic, both look real nice, but the Monaco's just look and feel exclusive to the car.

Before...


After...

Red Monaco much better, and a great idea that having the MG Badges on the Headrests

Stu, I stole that idea from you.

Who came up with the idea originally, was it Ian?
