Exmoor D3 canvas seat covers
I've decided my lovely '09 SE with 30k miles is a keeper for now (mainly due to big cost to upgrade to 3.0 D4 with more miles) so think I would like some seat covers to protect the leather and have a little change. I am thinking I will go with black to go with the Stornaway paint and black carpets and door cards etc, but shot grey would be 2nd choice. Would welcome any comments, though I have already seen some that armrest covers do not fit

Yep, I've got them. Great seat covers, great fit... Except the arm rest covers, which don't fit.
I leave them on then just chuck them in the wash every couple of months. Quick and easy to remove, a bit longer to fit but nothing major

Great quality but not the cheapest, iirc my full set were near £200
Mine are the waterproof ones in black
The headrest covers are a bas d to fit, seem a wee tad small,
Can't comment on the armrests as I don't have them
So just launched the covers in the box of extras I've collected
D3 57 xs Stornaway grey
D2 02 commercial silver gone but a great servant and won't be forgotten

I've got the mustard/brown set which sounds horrible but in reality look great and agree, good product but can find no way of fitting the armrest covers despite hours trying.
Fancied a change from my black interior and 18 months later, still look as good as new. Really tough fabric.
Think my set were well over £300 so not cheap but quality costs.

Just (today) took delivery of a set of covers from jcseatcovers.co.uk and have almost finished fitting the drivers seat cover and early indications are very good indeed. The fit is very tight which is a good sign.
Once I've finished the drivers seat I will try and get some photos up for comparison against the passenger side. MY15 D4 SDV6 HSE Corris Grey - Gone

I saw these at the recent Adventure & Overland show.
The pics. on the website don't do them justice, much better in real life. They're made to fit for your specific model of Discovery.

IFF they're really 'heavy duty' Cotton Canvas, then that would be even better - tho' not averse to a small amount of 'poly' ( I did make and sell it some years ago...... 8) )
