works bucket seats???
Discussion
Hi there,
I have seen two types of sports seat, the 'proper' bucket ones with the JCW logo or the ones which are standard in the MINI GP, which bear the Reccaro logo.
So thats £830 for them both in black fabric OR £1370 for them both in leather. I'm not quite sure which 'type' these are (there is no pic in the options book). They, as you can see, are expensive from the dealer and can be bought second hand occasionaly.
The 'proper' buckets sometimes come up for sale on E-Bay or the dedicated MINI forums such as www.mini2.com or www.miniaddiction.co.uk - allthough cant see any on there at the moment - keep checking though, because they get snapped up very quickly!!
Colour wise I'm not sure because I've only ever seen them in black for sale. Maybe someone can advise.
Hope that helps a little.
James.
