Alternative seats for 4200

[mjheathcote]

Idle browsing really, looking at similar seats to the MC Victory seats made by Sparco.
These are similar looking, again by Sparco, available in leather.
Would look rather nice in my beige Classico don't you think?
I do sometimes wish the standard seats where more supportive, in the corners.
Just a £2k thought!

They look very nice, but no good if you are a fatty!

Love them Mike....Agree on the 4200 seats they just don't support when pushing on...It was one ofthing bits talked about in the early reviews.....They would do the trick.

 

[Torenno Performance]

Love those seats !!

The Sparco Milano has been on my wanted list for many years since I saw them in a GTV.

Geourgous seat but a small fortune in leather. They are also 10 years old so hard to come by.

mmmm they would look nice in my 3200

No available new.
Just renamed R700.
But yes a couple of grand in leather for the pair..ish!

 

[conaero]

They are a very reasonable grand plus car each. If you had a GS you could get £500 each for your old seats so its not that far fetched to get them.

With a 4200 seat you could have them mounted like an office chair maybe and they should sell for descent money.

So you would have to mount all the electrics in a seperate pod, or just do away with the heated electric seats..?? Would it not be cheaper to modify the bolsters on the existing seats, I was toying with that idea..??

Remember you posted a pic of them in a GTV Matt...Looked perfect on there and bet the really would hold you in place.

This one Andy, they look the 'dogs' don't they:

There are a few others on the Internet selling them too.

So £2,040.50 delivered, inc. vat, in beige leather.
I wonder how good the colour match would be?......

You could get the interior colour-matched by a good upholsterer. That way it would be spot on. My main concern would be whether they are heated, they really need to be in a spyder.

With this duff weather mine are back on in the 4200.

 

[safrane]

How much for cloth then trimmed in matching leather?

 

[mjheathcote]

I can only see them in alcantara or leather, same price.
Quite easy to add the seat heating elements, as long the seat covering is not glued to the foam.
