New seat choices...

I'm after a new drivers bucket seats, I've managed with a cobra Monaco s for long enough now, I find it very hard and uncomfortable. I'm looking for a seat that could run a 5 or 6 point harness, offers a lot of support and really holds you tight and most importantly, comfortable for upto 4 hours.

So what do people recomend? I'd really like a sabelt cup racer seat as it looks cool, but I'm after something more functional than something pretty.

This is also kind of a wanted add, if you have something that fits the above pm me, but mainly looking for recommendations and advise.

Thanks

Lewis

I do like the look of a recaro pole position, I know dmallett has these so I could have a test sit in one in his car :)

Sorry, but you clearly didn't read what I put!

MUST be comfortable.
MUST be supportive.

I'm sure they may well be but I'm looking for recommendations not what looks good, I could do that on my own.

I'm driving to Nurburgring at the end of May so the above is necessary.

Everybodys comfort in a perticular seat is different, some people preffer fitted seats and find them more comfortable. you never once stated a perticular prefference.

You also stated

Well these seats provide you with that....

So maybe worth reviewing what you wrote

Bimarco's Futura Lewis, I'd say their pretty damn comfy for a bucket seat. The only other seat that felt comfier was a Corbeau Revolution wrap around seat.

Bimarcos on eBay are £200 each, cheap and FIA approved!

I'v just bought a set of Bimarco Futura's, havent fitted them yet as waiting on side-mounts so I can't comment on them tbh, but them seem very comfy after sitting in them on my bed lol.
I read very good things about them tho and at only £422 a set from poland inc delivery which took only 4 days! I did opt out of the "Renault Sport" stitching as there was somthing I didn't like about it tbh, but the company said they could do it free as charge but would take around two weeks.

As I said tho there not fitted yet but when they are your more than welcome to a sit and drive in them, thats if we even meet up before may? lol. Im sure Rhys can tell you what he thinks;)

You have 8 posts on the forum, 6 are on this thread? You only replied because you had a wet dream over these seats. I couldn't care less about your opinion, infact think i'll report you to be honest :)


Thank's Rhys, Scott & Nick for the input, as for budget i don't really have one, don't want to be spending silly money, i'm gonna try Dan's Pole Posisions tomorrow for comfort tomorrow, might ask Scott for a sit in the Bimarco's at some point? :)

Report noted. No action needed.

You're having a hissy fit for nothing. Your post back to Joey was unnecessary.

Try being a bit nicer in future. Joey is new. There's no need to be so hostile.

If you saw my road tyres on the f1's you would want to go to Marham just to get rid of them!

Lewis have you made your mind up after lounging in my seats? lol

Pole Positions or Profi SPG's imo. I've just put the Profi SPG's in my Megane this week and did a 110 mile trip on Thursday night in decent comfort.

Lewis, SPG's have recently come down in price so you can get them £532 each...........but it depends on your budget;)

That's only £70 more than PP, my budget is as always as cheap as possible, but will pay the premium if needs be! Got a link?
