Hi Guys,
This seems like the best place to ask;

What is the difference between the older Cobra Imola S and the current Cobra Imola Pro seats?

I have sat in a Pro seat in the Demon Tweeks showroom and found it perfect - the price tag isn't though. With a few Cobra S seats coming up for sale, I was wondering if they would be a good alternative?

I already asked Cobra themselves and the lady on the phone wasn't able to shed any light....

If they're FIA approved, the older seats will likely time-out soon - so the makers and suppliers start selling them off cheap. Not remotely relevant unless racing and even then seat dates aren't always checked.

Don't know about an S, but I just bought a new Imola, the Imola pro is the large size version.

You sure?? From what is on the Cobra website, they only make the Pro now. Don't mean to be argumentative but it seems unlikely they would use the word 'Pro' to distinguish a size...
Where did you buy your Imola?

That is a good price, thanks.
I am going to be fitting in a classic car, and the seats will be trimmed in leather so wanting to try and get hold of 2nd hand seats as cheap as possible as they will be retrimmed anyway.
