As many of you know, Jaguar no longer makes ivory XK8 floor mats, at least for my MY 2000. I opted for DCR mats rather than generic ones. I’m quite happy, I purchased them for a little over $200 USD (including shipping to the US) on 8/22, and it is now 9/16. Here are some pictures, they’re almost too nice to step on and they greatly improve the interior of the car.

Thanks Dave!

Avern1,

DCR is a Jaguar Parts Internet Parts Shop in Scotland...It has just about everything you will ever want for you X-100! I bought a Set of these Mats about 2 years ago and they are great....Still look Brand New!

You are right, almost too nice to put your feet on. Might have to put a plastic cover on them like Grandma did with her furniture.

 

You are right M/P, Both of my Grandmothers did the Plastic thing, they were good looking until they turned Bronze …………….Those old Gals knew how to do things!!!!

I hated sitting in those plastic covers in the summer. My skin and the plastic would become one in a sweaty affair.

 

In 1967 I purchased a 1956 Yellow Caddy from a old lady while stationed in San Diego, for $500. It came with green cloth and green vinyl trim seats covered in plastic. After discharge I drove it to Seattle and kept it until the early eighty's. Removed the plastic covering and sold it for $2500, along with my 56 Buick convertible to purchase an E-Type. Hated the vinyl but it served it's purpose. The interior looked brand new. .We called it "The Yellow Submarine".

Bigbully, it looks like you edited your post, but I still see it in my email. It’s a little dirty, but the carpet underneath looks fine. Could you explain your concerns?

 

Lloyds Mats Store - Made in the USA

DCR Auto Parts - United Kingdom Company

Customeim - Ireland Company with manufacturing facilities and warehouses located in Asia.

GGbailey - Swiss company

For me, it's down to these 4 in no particular order.

I am going to have to talk to the final one to end my confusion after reading through their web sites and to end the questions that I have.

 

I recently bought the GGBailey mats. Good quality, and pretty quick on delivery. I would buy from them again.
