Hi does anybody have a picture of the genuine Citroen mats for the coupe or a link?

I want to get a set of mats but not sure I like the look of the ebay ones so wondered what else was out there. I cannot find an accessories brochure either.

I have an 06 3 door coupe VTR+.

thank you in advance

These are the genuine ones.

They don't make the better optimats anymore so difficult to find them for the hatch / coupe.

About the same price at your dealers too.

Optimats were 'moulded' and no longer available so we can't supply an image.

None of the mats had a model 'logo' other than the 'Loeb' ones as far as I remember.

Probably the reason the Optimats are no longer available is that they last so long.
My 3rd set are on their last legs, not bad in 168,000 miles, and as usual it's only the drivers side that has started to wear thin.
Best car mats I've beer had.
Like the OP I will have to start looking around for some new mats.

I got lucky and picked up a set of brand new C4 5dr Optimats for pennies on eBay a few months ago. Very well made, and I do expect them to last a fair while. Mine are going into the car in the spring, when they will replace my rubber mats.

Carlos, it would be worth your while ringing around dealers in case they still have a set of Coupe Optimats knocking about. While they are out of production, some may still be in the supply chain. I know that the dealership in Slough had a set for the 5dr still when I was last in there in October (chasing them for the outstanding paperwork for my car).

They are the same for the 5 door and coupe or should be. The interiors are the same.

Still on there John but when you phone dealers they will say they are discontinued. Tried 3 dealers now, can only get the surfer ones I think they are called now.

D'oh! On the plus side, you are about to join the Optimats club.

Also, take a look at this thread as well - - Click Here -

As the thread explains, you may need to buy some additional plastic securing lugs for the drivers mat (depending on what ones are already in your car). Don't worry, they literally cost pennies.
