hi all,

Does anyone have a 996 with sports seats in the Oxfordshire area? If so, would you mind if I had a sit in them? I can bring some beers in return.

I've seen a pair of seats on ebay that would match my interior, but would want to know how myself, and my lanky frame, would fit in them. Searching up some previous posts shows that this is a very personal issue.

Cheers!

Might be worth you clarifying if it's Sports seats or Fixed buckets you mean?

(Can't see why a lanky person who fits normal seats wouldn't fit sports seats - the sports seats are a bit of pinch around the shoulders, but should be fine elsewhere)

Ah, ok, thanks. It's the hard backed sports seats I'm looking at, not fixed buckets.

It's the shoulder wings that I'm concerned about; previous posts had warnings from "powerfully built company directors". I don't describe myself as such, but am above 6 foot.

Oxfordshire is a big county, which bit?

That's true smile I'm in Oxford itself.

I'm over in Northampton, that's why I asked. I have a 996 C4S with hard backed sports seats, happy to meet in Brackley if you wanted to try them out.

That's awesome, thanks! I'll check with the boss to find out when I'm free, but would be able to manage one evening. Obviously I don't want to put you out though! I'll PM you.

Thanks again
