Corbeau Sunday Service 18/10

175 spaces for a Sunday morning at Corbeau's factory - sign up now!



Sometimes one Sunday Service just isn't enough for a month, so we have included one more in October thanks to kind folk at Corbeau Seats/Luke Harnesses for October 18.

For the past 50 years, Corbeau's extensive knowledge and commitment to product development, have made it a world renowned name for seats and harnesses. Their seats have featured in some of the rarest and fastest cars ever produced, plus they're regularly seen in motorsport including British Touring Cars - more on that to follow - and British Truck Racing. Perhaps most famously, they've been used in Top Gear's Reasonably Priced Kia Cee'd. They most likely feature in a few of your track projects too.

Corbeau has invited 175 PH members for a guided tour of its factory and facilities to see how its seats are made through each step of the production line, from moulding to stitching and finishing.

As per normal there will be the opportunity to purchase refreshments throughout the morning, catch up with your fellow PHers and see a few nice cars.

We will also on the be selling T-shirts, mugs and stickers at this Sunday Service. It's cash only, so please come prepared with some extra cash to grab yourself some PH merchandise! The event is raising money for The Fire Fighters Charity so any donations you can provide during the day would be greatly appreciated too.

Finally, that touring car link. Corbeau has offered a prize of hot laps at Donington with Jeff Smith and his Honda Civic NGTC car, taking place on November 2. The winning name will be drawn on the day - good luck!

Add your name to the calendar here. Please arrive from 0900h.

The address you need is:

See you there!

What happened to the other 75 spaces? wink

Looks like something a bit different, looking forward to it.

It was the most poorly attended PHSS I've ever been to, and the worst organised as well in terms of food & drink. However, it was also one of the more enjoyable ones I've ever been to! biggrin

The extra half hour earlier made it a bit quieter which I actually liked, and it seemed that people stayed a bit longer too. The factory tour was superb, incredibly eye opening as I'd always imagine Corbeau to be this huge company, but when you realise it's just a handful of people and the wonderful craftsmanship they turn out... Well, impressed isn't the word. I will DEFINITELY be going back to get some custom seats made up soon. Nice run down too, catching a fellow PHer in a blue MX5 to join our convoy from the M25 was a nice change (good to meet you fella, sorry I've forgotten your name).

Very relaxed day, genuinely interesting and the staff were friendly as well as knowledgeable. Many thanks for everyone at Corbeau & PH for organising, more PHSS like this please!



But yeah, no burger van on site was unforgiveable wink
