    Melvill & Moon Seat Covers... Where to buy

    Guys,
    Ive just spoken to Exmoor Trim in the UK, they no longer sell Melvill & Moon seat covers, they now make their own canvas hobbies, that frankly don't look as good, but are a lot cheaper at 175GBP.

    A quick look on the M&M website seems to only list African resellers.

    Does anyone know where I could get set of Defender (TD5) covers from?


    I may need to pay MSA a visit.

    Thx
    J
    Regards,
    Jon

    Hi Jon,
    Not sure about TD5 but I bought covers for a Puma 110 direct from M&M. Did take a bit of email and photo correspondence to confirm seat style and fit, as well as freight costs. Also they required direct deposit payment - but sure enough the covers arrived safe and sound, and are certainly a fantastic piece of kit. Just be aware the process isn't quite like online shopping, and freight costs will be almost as much as the covers themselves. However, great product, nothing else like them available to the same standard - highly recommended.
    Cheers,
    Firefish

    Same for me Jon - I contacted M&M and the rest was taken care of via email with card details being given over the phone (credit card details should never be sent via email).

    The guys there are lovely and while the process takes a while, it's worth it.

    I'd suggest looking at some options for air freight as it's heinously expensive from South Africa.

    You won't regret buying them - I've used mine in anger three times now and they're so easy to clean, they look fantastic and not having to worry about how muddy I am when I get in the car is wonderful.

    Happy to come round if you want to have a look at mine.

    Black Duck Canvas Seat Covers

    about $350 for the front pair.

    Hi
    It's an old thread I know but just parked next to a new white Discovery @ Scitech in Perth, had a peek through the window (as you do ) and low and behold a fantastic set of Mellvill & Moon covers.
    Does this Disco belong to anyone on the forum?

    Also does anyone know if these are now available for direct purchase (the M&M seat covers that is) in Australia?

    Doesn't seem to be too much available on the local market.

    Cheers
    Jonny.

    The Escape ones from SA are on par with the Moons, and better priced.

    I managed to get mine almost all of the way around the world hand carried so saved on the postage but they are a great piece of kit and would reccomend very highly

    Not sure but it could be "boggs" who posted the following earlier this year:

    I don't know him, just remembered the thread. He bought the covers direct from M&M.

    While the Black Duck Seat Covers are a great seat cover, they are not a patch on the quality and style of the M&M covers.
