I'd like to get mine re-done. They're half leather/half Alacantra. So, I'd just want the leather re-done.
Should be relatively cheap.
It'd be good to find a re-trim place over here where we can negotiate a club deal with them.
Word of mouth in a club after a good job is the best advertising you can get  |

I think this is the place
Link to Nolans Autocare
They have an offer of 4 seats and door cards for 900 (on a E92 bmw)
So, at a guesstimate, the MR2 will be around half that price. |

Nolans are the boys big time, they do all the Toyota Ireland work as well.
Bluebell Business park, our office used to be down the block from them, ever marque of car and every age was catered for.

Just a warning about Alcantara.
According to the US MR2OC site, there has been fake Alcantara sold on Ebay. Alcantara is a brand name eg Toyota, Nike, Playboy etc. People thought they were getting a bargain @ $60 a meter. There are two grade of Alcantara, regular and automotive. The Automotive grade for cars has been treated so that it doesn't fade in the sun.

To be honest, work interferes with my daily productivity. Shame, I could get a lot less done if it weren't for work keeping be busy some times here and there.
Anyway, seems like Nolan Autocare is a much better and local option, plus they are the appointed Toyota guys. Thanks though, I appreciate the appreciation. Its very nice. Think ill have a coffee now, maybe 60 smokes and a bottle of Jack....hope I dont get pulled over.  |

I've the half leather/half alacantra. I asked Nolan Autocare for a price to re-do the leather and its 300 incl VAT.
I'd say for full leather seats, it can't be much more than 500 euros. Might get door cards as well for that.
I'll probably be going for it with them over the next few months and will report back with pics.

Yeah, its one of those small islands off Spain - nice spot 
I'm sure you've probably seen Alacantra - its a material a little bit like velvet

It's actually a brand name for a fancy Suede, like Levi Jeans, Alcantara Suede.
It's quite designer and pricey. You can get Alcantara rip off or copy, but that's just illegal use of the brand name. The product is suede regardless, it's just a case of quality, most of the cost is in the "Gucci" like brand name.
Look at their site to see how highly they regard themselves in the world of high end fashion:
