Ferrari SWB 250 GTO Engineering restoration interior full retrim leather corduroy nappa blue d:class automotive

It feels like we are posting about a Ferrari 250 SWB retrim every couple months at this point, but we absolutely love these GTO Engineering revivals. Every single one is a different spec, and like this one we are getting some more adventurous colours. Photos do not do the paintwork justice, the pastel blue is simply lovely, and paired with the new blue interior is automotive perfection.

This 250 SWB has an amazing spec, the blue Connolly leather is amazing, super soft, and high quality. We use the same branded leather for all of these retrims to keep them uniform in standard. The seats have dark blue corduroy centres, which is a really nice touch, Quilted bulkhead with foam to create that 3D look you see, again a really nice detail as some of these cars get carpet or plain leather here. We also trimmed the roll cage in the same leather, really completing the look and feel of this car. Blue carpet has been selected with leather binding to keep the blue theme throughout the car, making the wooden steering wheel and chrome details that bit more stand-out.

This Ferrari 488 GTB came to d:class for a steering wheel retrim, despite only showing light signs of wear. Having recently changed hands, the new owner wanted the car to feel completely their own. Starting with the one part you touch every time you drive. A fresh wheel makes all the difference, complemented by the installation of new steering wheel buttons to complete that factory-fresh finish.

This Porsche 911 Turbo S came to d:class for a partial seat and door card retrim. The customer wanted a band of grey Alcantara flowing around the seat base and back, matched as closely as possible to the car’s exterior colour. We were also tasked with recreating the debossed ‘Turbo S’ as an embroidered logo. Finally, the door card centres were retrimmed in matching grey Alcantara, complete with OEM-style stitch lines. Not a huge job, but a well-executed and highly effective OEM-like upgrade.

This is the second Porsche 918 Spyder to come through d:class for a steering wheel retrim. The reason for this one, however, is a little unusual. The previous owner chose to cut corners by hand-painting the racing band orange... hardly the right approach on any car, let alone one of this calibre. From factory, this 918 Spyder featured a distinctive neon green racing band, designed to tie in with other signature details across the car, such as the rev needle, rear badging, and brake calipers. Naturally, the new owner wanted this put right, and the car was promptly brought to us for a wheel retrim.
