mistral
hi mate and welcome. the mistral dont have a maf. the gearing is very slow and acceleration is slow. its built for comfort not racing starts. takes some time to get used to using the throttle properly but once you have its fine. still, check the mini filter and a good service is an idea.see the threads on here for info

There is usually an upholsterer in your local yellow pages that can do it for you, otherwise like you say visit a breaker. Trouble is a good set may be expensive so it might be worth getting a quote for both
