Interior Shots of 300 Sport

[dictys]

Does anyone have any photo's of interior of 300 Sport?

Any info would be gratefully rec'd.

Russell Mills from the Yahoo Esprit group owns a sport 300 - although he is currently trying to sell it.

He ought to have some interior pics...

I am making an offer for Russell's car, as far as I know he doesn't have interior pics, but if I get it, I will gladly supply pics...

In the meantime I have a jpeg of an S300 interior I can email you if you want.

dictys - there is a pic of a sport 300 interior (No 48) in the photos section of the uk yahoo esprit group.

I've grabbed it so i can post it here for you:



If you ask nicely, i'm sure russ (black s300) on the yahoo group wouldn't mind sending you some pics too.

Also, Mark M has some 300 seats for his project car:


Mark's project is at :

Forgot to say - some early GT3's were fitted with the same seats as the sport 300. Later GT3's and V8-GT's get a similar seat, but its not so deep.

Here's a pic of the factory lightweight seats in my '98 V8-GT. They have hard composite shells (painted to match the body of the car) with alcantara inserts.

Those seats would resolve my leg room problem I have on my 1990 Turbo. Where can you get them from? Does anyone make a similar seat as I don't want to spend a great deal on this motor?
I might as well wait to spend my money on a later esprit.

dave,

you are about same height as me 6ft 3"? if so these seats make a massive difference in room. testing a GT3 as above I found stacks of space but with the later seats and V8 SE seats v.cramped.

These you can buy from SJS for £525 each or a after market seat. Sparco and a few others do seats that will fit but you need quite narrow seats.

You could maybe post up on the yahoo group to see if someone has some second hand? Sometimes people take these seats out of their esprits to fit the comfy 'armchair' types. Alternatively, maybe elise/exige seats would fit? They do some nice seats for elises and you may find they are narrow enough to suit an esprit?

Thanks guys for the replies. Dictys, sorry. I didn't mean to change the subject of your thread. I know sometimes how it can be fustrating when all your looking for is answers to your own query. I will have a look at various sites for you.
Any reason for the pics?
