Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I like that too but I'm sure it would be a disaster trying to keep it clean. Can't even keep a pair of white shoes clean more than a day

    Lucky you don't wear car interior around on your feet :)

    What happens your footwear outside on a rainey day/if you walk through a lawn/accidentally step in a puddle.
    Only way to keep that interior clean would be to put plastic bags around your shoes getting into the car every time.
    Imagine policing your passengers beind as cautious as you were.

    I would love to have an interior like that but you would be cleaning it every day :)

    I don't know, people generally report that cream interiors are not that hard to keep. I would probably swap out the mats to black tho.

    First steps would be some sort of white/tailored mats anyways in my opinion.

    I have a light grey/ cream coloured interior for years.
    Love a bright interior.
    My work involves fields and building sites daily. Now it requires a bit of cop on not to be just jumping into the car with dirty boots but I have nice matching mats for summer and a set of black rubber mats that can take a lot of abuse.

    I’d imagine the parking situation has got a lot worse since this arrived in stock 😃

    I used to think I liked those W140s, but they're so horrendously boxy they're beyond retro or even novelty status. Big bucks but a rare car all the same.

    Forgot to mention it’s a long wheelbase version .. if that makes any difference Voodoomelon ��

    Plenty room around beshoff now. Looks like a fine setup.
    Jesus the old place was shocking.

    I got the boot off Beshoffs FB page for taking the p1ss out of their grammar. :pac:

    Selling high end cars with ads starting: 'high Spec' & 'low Mileage'

    I'm sure they're still at it!

    Whoever runs their Facebook page still hasn't figure out how to upload high quality images. They're all rubbish quality. I'm liking their W221 S600.

    I've seriously grown to a dark interior on my own car, black leather seats, black floor carpet, black headliner. I'll find it very hard to go back to a light interior.

    Saying that, black carpet and black floor mats, are just impossible to keep clean.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,466 ✭✭✭✭mickdw


    Black seems very popular. I just don't like it. To me, white leather just looks far more special but people differ and most seem to go black judging by how hard it is to find used models in white v black.

    I'd say it boils down to maintenance. I have oyster coloured leather now having come from previous cars with dark coloured leather and keeping the oyster leather clean is a lot more involving than the darker leathers. Most people just don't want to spend much if any time cleaning their interior upholstery so dark leather just hides it better for them.

    It’s awhile since I looked at Beshoffs ..

    These stood out for me today ..

    me too - love it in red.

    I wouldn't cross the road to see it if was the usual black/silver.


    In other news: I bought my 996 from them. Painless experience, haggled a bit, agreed a To Do list and they even delivered it to my inspector of choice......

    Post-sale was a bit disappointing - when I was in the market to change not only the 996 but the other car as well, calls were never returned. Curious that.

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Jeremy is a decent enough chap and normally just gives you the keys if he knows you.
    Only bad thing I can say about him is sometimes it takes while to get him and even longer to get him to return your calls.
    Must about bought 5 cars from him over the years, always has a decent stock listing.

    Thinking of viewing a car with this dealer. Anyone have recent experience with them?
