[bennyboy]

Linen is the colour, a very light beige.

The space saver style has a smaller hump for the space saver tyre to fit under. Earlier cars had a larger hump to fit a full size wheel underneath.

Ah Ha.. its all coming back to me now i have switch my brain on, Sorry Ben but my car is all black in side and out so linen wouldn't be any good.

Out of interest, why do you want to put a black one in a linen car?

Thanks anyway Steve.Oli, 2 reasons for wanting a black version...

1. I've taken out everything you can imagine behind the front seats (carpets, sound-proofing, tonnes of glue etc...) and shall be replacing the front seats with some lightweight buckets at some stage, and they will likely be black. So it should all match quite nicely.

2. I find that the linen carpet reflects onto the rear screen and, whilst it's not at all dangerous, it annoys me a little!
