85/86 onwards SR, was only out for a couple of years so not that common.
I think you had the choice of this against the grey with certain exterior colours like white or Jamaica yellow.
I think most would have gone for the grey with white plus Jamaica yellow SR's are V rare hence not seeing this pattern that often

I have one seat lol Its an Astra SR one in the same fabric.
I nearly bought a Jamaica yellow SR with that interior and I got the seat as a spare for a tenner so bought it. Well it was mainly for the fabric headrest(As fitted to my Sport).

I had a interior the same as that, I bought it from Dod on the site. It always puzzled me as to what year of SR it came out of. lol

This is the thing how many of these interiors have been burnt or dumped in the skip in favour of SRI or GSI interior years ago :mad:

Another type, you got any pics? im sure this was all the check types.

All three are only early mk1 colours and only brazil was a solid colour the other are both metalic and optional extra at extra cost, it would be interesting to see the 3 shades,
