My original floor matt is beyond a joke now. I was going to install the Exmoor mat but am struggling to justify the price and it seems hard to install.

Does anybody know if there has been an improvement in quality of the current LR offering (LR068974) or is it still paper thin?

i got some sheet rubber from Clark rubber and put over the original mat.
This has removed the hole problem for a while.

I went with these to cover up the heel hole, very solid and do the job fine.

Its worth checking your Land Rover dealer for a price on a set of those, I got mine at a discount as they were on clearance.

Anyone replaced the matt that goes under and around the front seats,on the puma 110?
I can't believe how poor the quality of the original is,its just falling apart.[bigsad]

Anyway,been looking around,freight seems ridiculous from some suppliers.

Maybe try LR spares tomorrow?

Yes i will sit-down when they give me the price.[bigsad][biggrin]

I replaced it with the Exmoor Trim moulded matting system as mine was disintegrating. Freight was a huge cost of it due to the weight, and i had to get help to manhandle it into position when fitting and it took a couple of goes to get it looking ok as I had to cut my own holes.

It does look much better than the original disintegrated matting.

It is useless, isn't it. I haven't bothered replacing ours, as the hard backing falls out.

If it is just to cover the seat box, you could get this
Loadspace Mat - 109/110 5door Rear Tub - Paddock Spares (https://www.paddockspares.com/tr707-loadspace-mat-109-110-5door-rear-tub.html)
Loadspace Mat - 109/110 5door Second Row - Paddock Spares (https://www.paddockspares.com/tr708-loadspace-mat-109-110-5door-second-row.html)
Or this is a heavier rubber and a bit more expensive from Bearmach
https://bearmach.com/rubber-mat-load-area-suitable-for-110-109-hd-black-vehicles-ba-2484
and cut it and stick it on. It is not heavy duty but for the price it good value. The seat box is just three sides which can be easily measured and cut i.e. two sides and a front. The piece than goes under the seats usually gets cut away to allow access to the seat boxes. I put one in the back of a 110 years ago and it is still in use. Anyway just an idea if you are stuck.

So called LR,waste of a call that was,they couldn't find what i wanted in the data they had.What they did find,was a 6 to 8 week wait[bigsad]

So rang MR Auto, what a breath of fresh air[biggrin]

Another huge thanks to these guys,particularly Warren,he knew exactly what i needed,some was in stock,other gear was overnight from down south.Prices good as well.

Good to use locals,i have bought filters and a few things from them before,but not spare parts.

Have used them to service our LR's for the last 20yrs as well.
