Hi
Any recommendations for a company that can redo the stitching on my s1 softop, as its beginning to go brittle and fall out ??
Prefer central belt location
Cheers

Any sail maker should be able to stitch the roof for you. I used Saturn Sails in Helensburgh. My stitching one the years had gone white and Saturn didn't realise that it was meant to be black, so used white thread!!. Repair cost was around £50 including postage

This guy (Paul) is a decent chap - did a few minor repairs on my soft top a few years back (replaced missing poppers etc). Did a decent job.
Edit to add; based in Lenzie, just to the north of Glasgow.

Contrast stitching is an optional extra on the V6. You've just increased the value of your car considerably
