Thanks for the update. I guess your car must have originally been yellow
over black as the Primrose yellow cars had black seats with yellow
piping, which are more common of course. I suspect some cars got
restored this way because the black seat covers are available whereas I
don't think anyone sells the yellow ones!

If I was restoring  a car from scratch that's certainly a colour scheme
Id seriously consider.

Regards

I once owned a BN4 which had originally been primrose and maybe even 
primrose over black. The shreds of the original interior were indeed
yellow 
with black piping. the dash was also originally yellow. I agree the 
combination must have been spectacular.
