those look nice but in my experience, coco mats start to unravel in less than a year of use. My advice is: Buy them but don't use them. Only for pictures.
I drive my car as much as possible when the weather cooperates, ie.. no snow and not raining. I have the Cocos and they have been in since and before I purchased this car. They look as good as new. I reached out to the person I bought the car from to see if he remembers his source of purchase. I will let you know if I hear back from him.
I have the original black floor mats and they are in perfect condition If someone would like to buy them, but the Coco's are so much nicer in my opinion and they fit very well.
There seems to be two companies out there that provide Coco Mats. And their product line of Coco Mats looks a lot alike. Especially the colors. But the more expensive company says theirs are better. The cheaper one is offering a 21% discount for the 4th Holiday. That's why I'm trying to find out if anyone knows what the quality is. I hope he responds back. Below is the link to both companies:

I bought mine from the second company more years ago than I can remember. I think the auto anything ones are a knock-off. I'd guess you get what you pay for. Greg's look to be from cocomats.com as well, if you look at the pictures on both sites. Very hard wearing in my experience. Very thick and sturdy backing too.
The first set they sent did not fit well (I think they may have had patterns for an XJ40 instead) so they sent me paper to cut into a pattern so they should now have a pattern for an exact fit. They covered all the shipping to and fro etc. Very easy to work with.
The person I purchased the car from confirmed they were from Coco (the second web Link). He told me they sent him a pattern which he trimmed to fit and sent it back to them. They fit very well and are high quality.
I would have already ordered from the real CocoMats company (the second one) IF they had the color I wanted. Only the first one does. And yes I probably understand they are of inferior quality to the CocoMats company. And... I'm not so sure I would get the service from the Autoanything company that I would CocoMats.com. Especially because CocoMats is family owned and they probably care a lot more. The one above is the color Autoanthing has that CocoMats doesn't. Draght!
Just FYI for anyone following this discussion on Coco Mats - MiamiTVR gave me the below response when I posted the same question in General Tech Help:
Opps - thought I could copy and past from another post but it didn't work. Anyway... he said that the colors really enhance his Jaguar but the quality was crap. And there was a lot of outgassing from them that destroyed the fine smell of a Jaguar. Who would have thought?! So I won't be buying from them. Again... the beauty of this FORUM!!!
Oh, that would kill it for me! Formaldehyde is Not a Jaguar smell, it's a Plastic smell!
One of the Best and most charming features of my Jag is the SMELL or leather and wool, not to mention wood.
When I open the door, that Lovely fragrance wafts out to greet me and says,
"Welcome. Come in and sit down.
Now.
Let's Go Somewhere!"

The genuine Coco Mats or the knockoffs? If he's talking about the Coco Mats I'm surprised. Quality of mine is excellent and I don't recall any strong smell (had them in two cars for years now).
