Yes, I note the "IF Clausager is correct" as so often it transpires that he
was a bit quick on the draw with his opinions. CR/OEW is quite a typical
combo over here, so much so that I'd say that it was an available option. I
like it on mine, but often worry that it make my car look like a high speed
coca cola can.
And, yes, black with red piping would look fine and be consistent. Maybe I
just hanker for something a little more flashy!

Simon,
If Clausager is correct, that combination (CR/OEW) was not a standard
factory option, for any year. Of course, one-offs were done, and, with it
being a UK car, the possibility of such is probably greater than on one for
export.
However, I would think, if you are not going to redo the seats, that the
best choice would be to echo the same colors on the dash - so, black pad,
black panel, red piping. It won't be "right", but it will be neat and tidy,
above all, consistent.
