Interior Decor.. tasteful* and refined*

[320touring]

As we are all gazing at 4 walls, I thought it'd be fun to have a look at some of the crazy stuff you could get on the inside of a car back in the day..

I'll start off with the GSA that recently appeared in the eBay that thread..

It's like driving a 70s Bathroom..

Then there is this - a Zender W123

Best described as "driving the cookie monster"

Migraine and toothache.

Whit a comeback:)

Looks like a church organ!

[Asimo]

Lagonda.  Like driving a cover project from "Practical Electronics"

[Zelandeth]

A couple of colourful ones which I had immediately to hand...Have a couple of photos of the interior of a Tatra T-613 with a truly gorgeously tastelessly bright colour scheme somewhere, but can't immediately find them!

It's like someone's caught and skinned a womble, or maybe a clanger. Need to add some stick-on googly eyes for the full effect.

[Sir Snipes]

Those crazy Japanese eh.

When leather just isn't your thing  how about zebra or ostrich 

[AndyW201]

The wonderful seats of the Mercedes 190E Avantgarde Azzuro edition, The doorcards and the piping on the floor mats matched the colour of each seat...

YEAH BUT Y THO?

[Zelandeth]

Why?  Because Lancia around that time were utterly bonkers, that's why!  ...And I love them all the more for it.

Still can't find the image I was actually looking for, but we can't mention class, comfort and refinement really without mentioning the Renault 25 can we?

 

Those seats are actually even more comfortable than they look.

[vulgalour]

I'm so glad ruched leather isn't a thing anymore.

[Sir Snipes]

Um yeah they don't look so comfortable to me.

VW should have done that on their ‘harlequin’ models

[MorrisItalSLX]

Volvos needs more corduroy velour these days.

But preferably in this colour...

[Spiny Norman]

My favourite interior ever, also available in green, red and blue.

[cort16]

It was good when regular cars had interiors that weren't just grey and back. My old Cortina L had red cloth interior, red carpets and red door cards.

My 928 had the Pasha interior, mine was browner than this one though

Izzat the south beach hotel in Troon?

[Zelandeth]

How about this vision in shades of blue?

(The mats looked way more muted on the website!)

I'll always miss that car.

[Spiny Norman]

Pretty funky for a Renault 5.
