Can this seat fabric be bought off the roll?
I found this seat back cover under another fabric on a front 86" seat back or a S11 tip up rear seat back :confused

That is a rare pattern. I've only seen it on Series Ones.

I have a long seat cushion (for inward-facing rear bench seats) in that pattern.

No idea if it is still available, but most patterns (or lookalikes) can usually be found.

I agree with Exile, I have only ever seen that Land Rover Material Pattern on some old Series I Seats.

You could try either below,

1. Series I club may know.

2. You could email Aldridge Trimming in Wolverhampton [email protected] Nothing to do with me but I have seen them on TV Car shows and they appeared to have lots of rolls of old style material.

Check vinyl I believe and Exmoor sell a close approximation to it.

Not sure if they would sell any material to you though.

^^^ Thank You both, I have a pair of these back cover in 'poor' condition and often thought about making a pair of bases to match, perhaps on the back burner for now as there always seems to be other problems/jobs in the way :shakinghead

It is a nice looking fabric.
Surprising really that the elephant hide lasted as long as it did. Wonder how many metres of that were used during the series II / IIA production run....

This is the check vinyl I once saw once on a late 88" station wagon (Series one)
