They are indeed :p

it is pretty bright actually cos the seats were all 're-leathered' bout 18 months ago.

they are on my 'to be sold' list too so anyone interested, even in looking, let me know.

You're selling them? I think they look great...you need a red steering wheel and gear knob too.

Oh, hold on. Don't put too much red on it or it'll break the sound barrier. :lol: :mrgreen: :geek: :laughing5: :laughing7: :tongue3: :toothy10:

Why not save yourself some money and trouble if the seats have just been recovered, why not just have them coloured as well as the door cards in whatever colour you want. At least you know what the quality is like with what you already have.

He's prepping it into a track/race car to use himself, hire out and I will offer it as an instruction/hire car; it will most likely be built to comply with Porsche Club Championship rules so he/I can race it in that occasionally. Consequently every unnecessary bit of weight will be taken out. As far as the interior is concerned, the seats will be replaced with a pair of lightweight race seats, belts will be replaced with 5-point harnesses, there will be no carpets, headlining, soundproofing, door cards (they will be replaced with plain lightweight panels, probably of carbon fibre); it will have a full FiA roll cage fitted and a plumbed in fire extinguisher. So that's why the bits he doesn't need are for sale. :)
