I thought they looked familiar! Wouldn't it be nice if JCW had them specially made *with* an airbag? Ohhhh...

Whatever.

Any seat has got to be better than the ' Sport's seats ' fitted to my MC .

Not kiddin'g here ! , I have driven a lot of vehicles from the original Mini van to a double decker bus !.

Competed in various forms of motor sport , and even fallen asleep in the garden chair !.

Driven to Aberdeen fom Newcastle non stop in a Mini Metro and stepped out as if I had popped into town.

Popped into town in my MC and felt like I had driven a marathon !!.

Currently own , MINI" cooper , Peugeot 106 , Vauxhall Chevete 2.3 HSR.

NEVER nay NEVER have I encountered such a crap SEAT.

They fit ' Competition suspension ' and a blinkin ' Kitchen
stool '.

Find out how much after market products are and try them out.

I am 99% about to buy CORBEAU'S.

Sat in Sparco's in competition car's but look to silly in a road car !.

Best of luck.

LUMSPEED.

Hey guys/gals,

I still haven't put my group buy for Sparco seats through.

If anyone is still interested. I'll be ordering next week. Prices are Milanos $800, Torinos $540, Milano Leather $1125.

If I have more than 10 orders, I can get a deep discount.

For seat options go to:
www.sparcousa.com

Regards,
Boris
