I really like the new JCW seats but a few things is still bugging me.. for ones the price

I heard £850 each and that is just stupid I think.

And also is there anyone who now if they are just coming in leather/alcantara? or is there gonna be cloth seats aswell?
And are there no jcw backseat? If not what you think is the best suiting upholstery to match the jcw seats. Offcourse the full leather would be great but to be honest it feels just stupid to pay the extra cost for the leather interior and then just swap the seats. So my plan was to just get the cloth sportseats because it´s the cheapest. But I think it will look a little bit odd with a backseat in cloth and leather seats in front. I would really like the JCW seats in cloth, is that gonna be possible?

I don't think there is much info out about them yet. I think there is talk of further info in December - I hope so anyway, I'm gagging to find out more!

Well the New JCW seats are made by Recaro... Where the old ones where Sparco's

Freddo · Nov 26th, 2006, 08:11 PM

I know they´re goofy expensive but its still Works

And yeah its silly but I want works..

Can the old ones be fittet to the R56 otherwise?

Freddo · Dec 1st, 2006, 12:35 PM

Now I´ve found out the price in Sweden... 15000SEK thats £1115 each.. Sick I must say. Did´t expect them to be cheap but that is just ridiculous.

Well with the BMW/MINI card you could split the payment to 24 months.. but anyway they´re still painfully expensive

gcp · May 4th, 2007, 06:32 PM

Anyone actually have these yet ?

I would like to sit in one before I decide, can't find any dealer cars with them.

Can anyone assist ?

CC07ERS · May 5th, 2007, 07:05 AM

Ive seen a laser blue s with them on this site

Wooly · May 5th, 2007, 02:11 PM

I had my windows tinted at a pentagon workshop the other day and there was a glorious rs4 estate their, apparently the seats are exactly the same as the jcw ones.
They are called recaro sportster cs, ive been googling like mad to find some decent prices but they are all roughly the same. im hoping the dollar crashes some more so i can get it imported!!

Capital Seating and Vision > Seating, Vision and Accessories for Hardworking Environments That is the cheapest place ive found so far at £559 each so that is £1118.
These seats are definately going to be my next buy along with palo uber mini lights

If you guys fancy organising a group buy with that website, that would be great

edit: i forgot to add, the jcw ones are more because of the little logo on it. I think it looks more classy without though. So it is 200 less when you dont opt for that logo. But im not sure about the air bag issue.

R56 NEW MINI OWNER · May 5th, 2007, 08:17 PM

The JCW Seats are £1,530 including seat heating...well thats according to the brochure i got today from my dealer. They do look awesome

+ £141 each for leather = £1400, making the heated JCW seats not far off.

Have had a ride in a few Recaro equipped cars but would like to try the actual ones before parting with any hard-earned.

Mozza · May 18th, 2007, 10:40 PM

As these are not available to the U.S. market due to side airbag regulations I'm looking at buying elsewhere and getting them imported. Does anyone have an idea where I can get the actual JCW embroidered R56 Recaros from? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mozza · May 22nd, 2007, 09:32 PM

Ok so I need the Mini code(part number) for these seats if at all possible. Anyone with a British JCW catalogue should be able to find out?

Maaij · May 22nd, 2007, 11:41 PM

Leather:
