Seems a bit steep
Similar Sparco and Recaro a lot cheaper.
But you pays your money and takes your choice as they say
I personally would not put them in my car, think they are OTT for a road car.
Dare I say ( ricey tonque in cheek) But hey if you like them thats what is important.
You mod your own car to suit your preferences and not because of Joe Bloggs down the street.

As for the wheels they have been saying that since about JANUARY 2003 and we are still waiting.
If you think the seats are expensive Wait until they announce the price of the wheels
Bet you cant get them in white

[AidenL]

Yep, definitely not cheap.........

Never expected them to be though !

Anybody got any pics to refresh the memory?

Someone needs to find out who makes the base seat for JCW.

[AidenL]

Yeah, I bet that logo adds a few quid alright...........

Milano I think............

[NEMINI]

It's a true shame no one will make a better seat that retains an airbag AND retains height adjustment. Too much to give up IMO

[AidenL]

This looks like them..........seems to be £ 739.00 for a pair? Thats full leather.........

I assumed per pair Tony, cos if it is each, then JCW are cheaper , and that would make them a bargain ! Now, you could be right, but I doubt JCW would be cheaper? Dunno.......might drop them an e-mail, check the price........
