Some of you may recall that I had the issue of the Black seatcovers I'd put on the rear seats marking the Alpacca leather. The dark grey rubberised backing had migrated onto the seats in areas of stress and couldn't be cleaned.

LR agreed to replace the entire rear seats.

I've now been told that the new 'non marking' seat covers are in stock and the really good news is that they are available in Alpacca and one of the other lighter colours. Looks like 'Black' is no longer available. P400e HSE Portofino Blue and Ivory Seats.. it's like a yacht!!

This is good news...I too have the black front seat covers, they have managed to keep my Alpaca seats looking like new for the past year, and thankfully without the marking you mentioned, but I would like to change them for the Alpaca to match the leather as well.

I have yet to see these available however here in the U.S....do you have actual confirmation that these are available for sale today?

Thanks. PJPR

Oh Dear . . .

Mr Jenkins could become a very busy man. I'm sure he will be really impressed that someone has posted his business e mail address on this message board.

If he gets bombarded with e mails from every "Tom Dick & Harry" I'm sure he will think twice in future before trying to help another customer. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE.

So if owners with black leather want black seat covers, can they not get them anymore?

Whats the choices? L319 D4 HSE

1998 110 TUM HS FFR Hard Top XD WOLF

1982 Series 3 SWB

Re The waterproof covers, they are available in Aspen and Sand, Sand being a beige rather than the Alpacca as prev stated, Black isn't a choice at mom. P400e HSE Portofino Blue and Ivory Seats.. it's like a yacht!!

Am I the only one to think that these new seats covers are really expansive??? I have been quoted £132.92 fro the front and £154.28 for the rear (VAT included!)....

That would be for the sand ones....Any other quote? Range Rover Vogue ‘17 TDV6

Welcome to the world of the Land Rover Acessory rip-off!
I suspect they are so expensive because they have to be specially designed round the seat mounted airbags. The price also includes a small and not very well fitting armrest covers for the front seats. If the set I bought for my FFRR are anything to go by, make sure that you don't have any small kids or anybody who is easily offended by bad language around when you fit them - the FFRR covers were a b*gg*r to fit - be prepared for them to put up a fight when you fit them! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
