How Much Would You Pay?

Recommended Posts

Someone localy is offering me a set of front and rear Griffe seats in very good condition. Frames are non-rusty, leather is good but not worn (not great), some threads are fraying but overall it's a good set of full leather seats. I would like to get them and eventually turn them into GTI seats (the red and black cloth is available on the French 205 GTI Club site. I asked the seller to give me a price and he just said "give me an offer I can't refuse". I just need a ballpark figure for how much the seats are worth.

Seems like a massive shame to ruin some lovely rare seats when you can buy GTi style seats. Someone with a green interior might really want them. I would love them if I had the money to buy them!!!

Well, find me a good set of GTI seats for sale in Germany, and someone who wants his Griffe seats and we'll talk. This guy has been trying to sell these seats off his crashed Griffe for a while with no success.

Do you want black/red half leather interior, or would you be happy with black/green half leather (eg the green & black fabric in the centre, and the same leather and green stitching as those in the pic). If you are happy with green/black half leather, I have a half-decent set. You get those full leathers in the pic and we'll do some kind of trade!?

The easiest way would be to remove the covers from the seats, and post them separately, as they are actually quite easy to take off with a little bit of patience. Would make posting them much cheaper! Like 2Pugs Ive got a decent set of green ones I would be happy to ship you the covers from in exchange!

 

Does the chap have any other of the griffe interior available? Centre console, doorcards etc? :)

I'll ask him about the other interior bits. If someone has good GTI half leather covers I could definitely do a swap at a later date. I was thinking of bringing those seats to the US with me, buy the red/black cloth from the French 205 GTI Club, then have an upholstery shop in Virginia do the sewing for me.
