someone changed something.
lightstone interior has same color seats, carpets & trim.
on that one, the trim doesn't match half the carpet, and the seats are something else entirely.
lightstone pretty much matches the light plastic color in the front seat area.
you can see the "Hollan" on the stainless steel door trim in the front seat picture.
3 different colors visible in the back:
lightstone sides
slightly darker carpet
almost black seats

It is an H&H. I think its just the light that makes it look different shades of tan. H&H used walnut and dark brown Im pretty sure.

I don't know, I had not noticed that before. The rear decks are the wrong color...they are the tan/saddle/dark brown/whatever color they call it...they could be replacement because of sun damage or whatever. The seats are very dark...possibly the tan, but not sure with the light. Everything seems to be close to right with the lightstone interior.

It is a H&H, don't know all that much about its history, but I am relatively certain that nothing has been swapped (judging by the condition only).

Light doesn't show it all that well, I will try for another pic today. The colors are as close to a match as any older rover interior.

Hell, on my disco the colors of the SRS, dash and cluster were all slightly different.

I could not find any reference that the H&H had walnut.

...

But I guess that it does not matter all that much since the only replacement mats are lightstone or beige... and of course the online colors are tough to make out as well.

Scroll down to H&H "...The seats were a dark ?bridal leather? with walnut piping ..."

I assume if they are using walnut piping, they will use walnut elsewhere.

Maybe, but it is tough for me to tell. There is much more leather on the H&H than other P38 that I have seen. I would agree that the piping and leather may be walnut. But I am unsure about other.

I am trying to make a best match to the carpets. Opinion from P38 owners appreciated. There are presently saddle and lightstone carpet mats available.

Anyone have any recommendations for good wet weather rubber mats?
