Great visit at the junkyard.

Today I went to my usual junkyard, and had some fun: I brought home four wheels from a '90 non turbo, manual, for just 50 EUR! (1 EUR is more or less 1 dollar). And they had still Michelin Energy tires on them, with a decent life prospected. The rims are in almost pefect conditions, even if the car had 260k km. I'm putting them on my '87, and I think that if I won't be too lazy I'll rebuld my actual rims, they are the stock one for the '87.
Anyway, what I wanted to post, beside my evident satisfaction, is this question: that car had a wonderful leather interior. Mine has also, but it's showing signs of time and that one is in really mint conditions. When I say this, I mean that I could not distinguish it from a new one. Really.
The junkyarder asked me 100 EUR, so I'm thinking: the price is definetely good, but is a mint interior worth 100 EUR more than mine?
Any comments are appreciated.
I'm still wondering how that leather can appear so newer than mine, even if it's got 80k km more than mine...
I believe that the car was totaled due to a engine failure, since the engine was so dirty of oil.
This board is fantastic!
