i have some jcw's in my S and love them, if I had a One I would put them in that aswell, or a One D, power or fuel makes no difference these seats are 100 time more comfortable than the standard sport seats, plus they look the mutts nuts, I regularly drive 200miles in my car in one hit and I feel much better after driving with the JCW's compared to the standard seats.


hope this helps

The height adjustment mechanism is part of the seat itself and so cant be fitted to the works seats, the works seats are about 1 inch (25mm) higher than the standard sports seats in their lowest position
