New 'S' Seats...Maybe?

[v8s4me]

Did you watch the 'Classic Car Show' last night. Fast forward Wilson's drivel to 9 mins in and have a look at the seats in the MGBGT LE (the "new" one with the MX5 engine). Do those seats look familiar to you? I wonder if they are new seats or refurbished old ones. If they are new, then perhaps new foams might become available from the manufacturer. Who knows?

That programme has some excellently made features... and some of the most painful viewing ever broadcast while they "banter" in their "bunker".

When I was looking at the options to refurb the seats in my previous S (before buying Chimaera replacements) I spoke to Adrian Venn and he had a supply of the bases/foams for the S so might be worth contacting him

I record the programme and fast forward all those bits, and the adverts, so that leaves about 20mins of reasonable viewing. If Clarkson thumped him would anyone complain?

When I contacted him a couple of years ago about foams for mine he only had them for the earlier cars. Has that changed now?

I have to say that whilst I applaud any attempt to bring classic cars to our screens, this program is spoilt by the banter between Quentin and Jodie. I thought Quentin would be the annoying one but I find Jodie Kidd or maybe it is just the scripted banter, really gets on my tits.

You will have to give me some time to think about that one!

I'm sure if you ask nicely she'll let you try another position
