As Tunnie says, minifacelift MV6 available in manual, not uncommon, but there are more autos.  Finding with leather as well will narrow your chances a bit further....

Just to chip in, i believe estate rear seats are different to saloon rears and not interchangable.  So to make a cloth MV6 estate into one with leather sports seats you'd probably end up having to gut both a leather estate (elite if you want heated rears) AND a leather MV6 saloon for it's sports fronts.

Ok..

So this might be a good motor: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=120149723300&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=002

But I would need to hunt out an interior.

Maybe a retrim of the existing seats would be better....?

That one has both cloth trim, and is pensioner-ready (automatic) so not worth the bother really.... by the time you're replaced the interior and gearbox :O

Manuals aren't that hard to come by, the sports leather is much more difficult to find (and easy to install) so I'd at least hold out for a manual version then look for the seats. Unless of course it's very cheap... I know of one guy who bought an auto and converted it to manual, cos it was cheaper than buying a manual in the first place!
