The ultimate recaro seats

I love these Edition 1 Recaros, they make any Mk2 interior look the tits.
But its rare to find a mint set these days...

 

yup always liked them but mega bucks when you do find a mint set!

 

I agree with the edition ones. there is a pair of electric recaro seats from a rallye on German Ebay they look in pretty decent condition, I would post the link but cant access it from work. I tihnk they suit the age of the car too. I think some of the new designs like the R32 dont suit the rest of the car.

 

I agree but they went for 500+ and they needed work too - the drivers side bolster was split all down the side - would have needed new leather trim on it - another +/-500 plus the postage over here nearly 500 Euros!! Over my budget.

Worth noting that buying a German set makes for a good drivers as they are on the other side of the road over there.

I've been looking at it - would be good to combine it with a holiday in the summer.

I reckon I'm getting something sooner than that.

The debate rages on!

Cheers all.

 

just use it as an excuse to go to the ring (not that one is needed of course!)

 

there is also a pair of alfa GTV seats and they are lovely too quality leather does have alfa logo stiched in it though

 

Just checked they went for 800+ lol!!!

As you can see they need work too - a real collectors piece!! Anyone who has a pair of these is sitting on a goldmine - should store them in a glass cabinet!

Those A8's need to be in full heated leather to be the ultimate in my view

OE Recaro seats as fitted to MK2 golfs, the electric blue cloth versions, lovely

 

so were they out a merc? or other car, not seen them in a vw (yet).

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I bought mine off ebay and have no idea what car they were originally in.
But as said earlier i have seen the same type of seat in a few old sl mercs and even a couple of saphire cosworths

 

Lads, get your tissues ready.

May I present the ultimate 4-seat fully orthopaedic Recaro interior, as fitted to a 1980s Zender 190E:



Fishnet headrests, contrast carpets and coded dash. I'm wanting nothing more...

 

Matt do you mean these bad boys? They look pretty sweet but aint they just too big coming out of a car that size??

No, A8 is a model name of Recaro seat.

thems the ones, and they'll fit in a mk1 so they'll fit in a mk2.

G60 - cheers (this i missunderstood what you were saying!), i'll keep an eye out on the bay.

N/B - i'm liking them apart from they leather (not a fan of the stuff). again, will have to keep an eye out.

 

I've gone for these Recaro Expert L seats - got this one off ebay for 200 brand spanking with the correct subframe already on it. Unfortunately there was only 1 and although recaro still sell this model I'd be looking at around 600 for the other one at the minute. Fortunately I've got patience and will wait a bit to see if another comes up on ebay. Very comfortable seat.

 

I've got the fishnet recaros in my mk2 scirocco, but they have a different patern to those capri ones that were on ebay. Really nice and comfortable.

I think they came out of an MR2?



Or Black Colour Concept Leather Recaros from the Mk3 Golf =) my set is on the bay now!

 

My favorite as i posted earlier have to be the Dark Blue Edition1's, but I love these too...

 

Doddsy, any luck with a second seat?
