Hi all.

Can't decide at all on what seats to go for....

I don't want anything too "race" looking, so forza's etc are all out of the question, but I also want something that is comfortable as I will be driving the car a fair bit!

I also need the back seats to be usable, and I'd like a bit more space in the car overall...

Any suggestions?

I vote cobra classics, or rover coupe ones if you're handy with a welder.. ah I dont know about the height of the rover coupes, but the classics would definitely fit in nicely.

Cobra classics; keep hearing about build quality issues with them? Love them otherwise1

Are the ones in the bottom of this pic standard seats from somewhere? I think they look quality! http://www.minitrimm...erior_r4_c4.jpg

The Cobra classics are Ok but easy to rip (just ask my mate) Also, the piping discolours very easily. Ie his front seats are now piped in cream rather than white as they used to be.

The seats at the bottom are from the late coopers (SPi and MPi) but they are not standard covers. They are as comfy as Mini seats get if you ask me, but as I say, these have been retrimmed. Have a look on them on eBay, there are always these shaped seats on there, but the cleanlyness etc of them always differs as all second hand seats
