Poverty spec is a tad harsh but yeah, leather sports seats all the way for me. Love the way they hold you in round corners.

Nothing poverty about my seats...they are full leather...no factory seats had full leather...

Apparently the septics are paying big bucks for leather sports seats in good condition. There's some really nice leather Recaro pole position seats on ebay now, but £3.5k is too rich for me.

I do love Pole Positions and they were on my shortlist when I got my current seats but the shoulder strap holes are too low on my torso for proper fitment of a harness. Given I drive mine “enthusiastically” and track it too rather than park it up in a field and polish it this was more important to me.

I have considered getting another set of seats and swapping them over but as Blade put, prices these days have gone wild!

Haha...you mean like probably 99% of all classic car owners...... That's ok, each to their own, my car has never been on a track and nor will it, I cherish my car to much but that doesn't mean that I don't drive it and drive it very fast. I bet I have drivem more miles in mine than you in yours. Covered large areas of the UK plus many miles in France, including 4 trips to Le Mans.

Bit of a weird comment Pete. It was a generalisation that i was making so not sure why you took it personally.

If they’re good enough for a Lamborghini Hurracan then they’re good enough for me - NGK U5015 Coil On Plug packs with a cm or so chopped off the end to make them a nice snug fit in the 16v head For full COP sequential ignition.



I have the full wiring loom too that Peep made me for adding them to VEMS, the ECU does need some hardware changes making to the circuit board itself though. I’m off to Le Mans next week and then on the dyno the week I get back so this will have to wait until the end of the month - will neaten things up no end.
