Just been having a poke around getting the seatbelt out (mot failure) and found a tube coming from the back of the drivers seat, appears to attach to an inflatable bladder in the back cushion but I cant find anywhere in the car it could connect to, any ideas?

Probably a custom accessory for an incontinent driver.

Is it a bit whiffy?

Shouldn't it have a squidgy 'puffer bulb' thing on the end to pump it up? There's nothing on the car that it should connect to.

Probably an inflatable lumbar support? There would normal be a squeazy bulb on the end.

A lumbar support sounds most likely, looks like I need to get myself a squeezy bulb

Yup, mine has these and yes there is a rubber inflating bulb on the end with a vent valve (like on a sphygmomanometer - blood pressure cuff). As Peter says they are to adjust lumbar support.
