For some stupid reason I thought it would be a good idea to buy and fit a carpet from a 180 in my 138. I'm out there now, pitch black, freezing cold and wishing i'd just put up with the stains on the original grey carpet.

Worst. Day. Ever. Mad

The only thing keeping me going is knowing that i'll get at least 12bhp from the uprated 180 carpet.

Wrong mate

99 percent of 206s have black carpets

Gti's usually have grey (spesh if they are low spec)
