Testing the water on selling my seat guys.

These are over £1800 new and this one has been personally signed by Marcus Gronholm 2x WRC world champion. Seat is in excellent condition as you would expect and weighs little more than 4.5kg!!

Im looking for offers over £600.

 

When does the FIA approval expire?

 

I dont know without looking

How long are they from date of manufacture?

 

Ohhh if only i had the money....love those seats!!!

You getting too fat for it then Frayz?

 

No i have a new idea but i will only sell this if i get offered the right money mate.

 

Think it's 10 years

 

I'll check for you mate.

 

5 years -all seats and belts are indate for 5 years from date of manufacter. To compete even on club events the seats now need to be within date.

 

Okay, i'll check for you guys.

 

Okay guys just checked.
If its 5 years then im afraid it expired in 2006 and if its 10 years then shes good till 2011.

The seat has never been used in competition and is in near perfect condition.

Ive been told by others that most people get the stickers remade anyway.

Oh and the weight is 4.54kg

 

Agree with the dates on the belts....but not on the seats.

The seats in our Grp A clubman impreza are long out of date and we have not had a problem competing at any time this year?? Seat dates only apply for national type events?

Hi Jon, sorry should have checked the bluebook first, you are right, although based on the below I think that is changing in 2012, was getting ahead of myself, ours is full Grp N int Spec.

Do my seats have to be homologated?
Unless specifically stated in Championship Regulations for National events homologated seats are not mandatory. For International Events FIA homologated seats are required. From 1.1.2009 all new stage rally cars will require FIA homologated seats for National use (1.1.2012 for cars that currently hold a valid MSA Competition Car Log-Book).

 

So my seat is all good then?

 

frayz...

your seat will be fine as long as it is not used in international events. Current cars used in clubman events should be fine with your seat, although this is only Rally rules and maybe different for some RACE events?
That should clear it up????

Any advance on Kevs £50?

 

How much are you looking for?

 

No advance on £50.

But I hope whatever you have in mind to replace it with, I hope its better looking
