What would you have? Standard Cerb seats? Tuscans? Leather trimmed race seats? Maybe Porsche GT3 Seats trimmed to match? RS4 Audi?

depends what the rest of the plans for the interior are - I mean obviously its going to be carbon or kevlar seats if its a pure stripped down racer, for luxury sports car look, I'm thinking Aston Martin (not least because local tvr bodyshop has a skilled ex-Aston Martin coach trimmer)

wow, that's stunning. I know exactly what you mean about the difference between race car and luxury sports car style interiors. I'm trying to work out a way to combine the two different styles though. I've always found that if you go out for a track session in a normal road car you realise the seats that you thought were quite supportive on the road simply don't cut it on the track.

I know it's a real worst case scenario but also thinking of safety, some road car seats just aren't gonna give you the protection a race seat would in event of a crash.
