How much for Recaros?

[Schweppy]

Been offered some Recaro Trendlines non leather, with clio subframes.

They are in good condition and i can put them straight in, however, they were from a 4 door car and so for some reason don't have the snap forward function to allow people in the back.

How much are these worth?

how many sets of buckets you been through now dude?!! lol

I would say 350-400 depending on condition

LOL. *coughs* 4/5??? haha.

I want trophy recaros but cant afford them.

 

[jayxx83]

why not go the whole hog and get 197 recaros, much better than the trendline imo... but tbh i would never have got rid of the misanos. awesomest seat!

My recaro came from a 4 door, paid £150 for the seat then £100 for subframe.

Didnt like them mate.

My current buckets are soooo much more comfortable.

Yeh could look at 197 ones.

Yeh my mate wants £500 for the lot so thats about right then.

I was told (and I probably read it on here too) that trophy recaro's (trendlines) are faux leather (not genuine leather)

save money and get daytonas or misanos

Yeah, they're not real leather.
Having got some now, I don't think I would have paid the 1k they go for, infact, I wouldn't pay alot over the 400 I got mine for.

Much better seats out there for the money than the trendlines...

 

[ForceIndia]

You'll hate them after the seats you've had fella. They are only 10mm lower than the standard seats, far too high. Comfy seat, but the driving position is crap because they re-use the original clio subframe (make sure you have those!). I thought they were ok until I tried other seats (Cobra/Momo etc).

 

[riz]

i have cobra misanos and i think there on par with trendlines tbh

The trendline is a nicer seat (build quality, more comfy) but the driving position is far better with the misano. I'd much rather have the misano.

 

[riz]

Cobra are so close yet so far, in making the misano an amizzin seat.

 

[Schweppy]

I have had misanos...

I don't like them lol.

My shoulders are too wide for them.

 

[Schweppy]

The imolas i have now are much more comfortable but cant get anyone in the back.
