The colours are greys, two tone grey, and an unusual orange / brown colour. The patterns are a light leather texture and a heavy grained leather texture. When they came into my possession I was advised that they had been in dry storage for about 30 years and had originally been obtained from British Leyland having been used on Jaguar and Triumph cars. I have only seen one Triumph Stag with the orange / brown Ambla interior but other cars have yet to be identified. Because of its age I assume someone must have a use for it and I am looking to dispose of it. Whoever ends up with it will need a small van with a 5ft bed or an estate car capable of carrying the weight. My telephone numbers are 0116 271 2152 0797 476 3088 (Leicester UK) Thank you Graeme Peene I have owned a number of rolls of Ambla upholstery for a number of years.

Flexible or not, it's vinyl. If you can get any vinyl in the proper Jaguar colors, then you can proudly proclaim to the world: "Ive got Ambla!". Why, you can even fool your upholstery guy telling him/her "do a good job with my Ambla". Ambla is Jaguar-lingo for vinyl. nothing less, nothing more. Flexible or not, it’s vinyl.
