Question Classics: anyone got the Prodrive Recaro interior?

I seem to remember that later classics had the option of a Prodrive interior, with, IIRC, electrically adjusted Recaro seats? In a very "bold" pattern?

Anyone got that interior? I just wondered what model seats they were and how they fitted, since "standard" Recaros aren't an easy fit.

My old Series McRae had Recaro's with matching door covers and rear seat.

Cheers

they pop up now and again second hand, but very rare you see a full set nowadays as the doorcards always seem to go missing.

Set should include,

Front seats
Rear Bench
Rear back
Front and rear door cards

Only came in 4 door and should have a black and grey camo as these were the optional prodrive interior pack, other colours pop up but they always seem to be a mod, not OEM (although sure someone can correct me if thats incorrect).

Picture of the cloth and front seats are on this link

A full matching set including rear and cards in good nick with original covering is probably worth more than the car it came out of.

Wowzers! Makes the wingbacks in my Golf seem like a bargain (Even now they can fetch well over £1500 for a used pair).


That reminds me; I need to weld the fixing bolts

Yep - I went for the black option.

They were all singing all dancing electric/pneumatic.
Plus the price includes fitting and a visit to Prodrive

It’s worse than that: My mum used to run a business selling the damn things...hand made in a sweatshop in Bearwood.


And thankfully none of us owned digital cameras back then
