New Zenos E10S Owner - Advice please!
Discussion
I am now the proud owner of a 200 mile E10S! Couple of questions I have for other owners:
Seat pads are showing signs of fraying on the edges, has this affected any other cars and is there a recommend fix?
Has anyone fitted upgraded brakes as I’ve found the standard brakes tricky for road use when cold
Any advice much appreciated

Very impressed with the car, took a 15 minute test drive but didn’t get chance to warm the brakes properly and they’ll take a bit of getting used to. Loved the noise and don’t think i’ll ever tire of it! Didn’t drive it home Saturday, I’m getting it transported down in a few days. Let me know if the seat pads are fraying on the red one, I’ve emailed a couple of companies for re-upholster quotes as that will just annoy me if I leave it!
I have the new car invoice with mine, it was registered October 2017 (it’s showing on a 66 plate but trying to get on a 67 with DVLA). It was £39k OTR including the Track Pack and Weather Pack, And I’ve bought it at just under the £22500 advertised with 200 miles on he clock. Unbelievable really, hopefully both our cars won’t lose much at all over the next few years
I’ve been in touch with Tillets who made the seats and they admitted they were made to a very tight budget and the vinyl isn’t durable. They’ve offered to reupholster in Suede @ £175 + VAT per seat or £275 in leather. Alternatively a local upholsterer has quoted approx £500 inc VAT to do it all in leather. It’s just a poor quality material, mine looks similar to your photo
I’ve driven most things on track, I’ve worked with BMW for 11 years and track days are a fairly regular thing, caterham’s, Ariel Atom etc. But this is something for me to take around mid Wales for a good few hours on a Sunday afternoon and want brakes with plenty of feel that don’t need to be track warm before getting the best from them. My technical knowledge isn’t amazing but I’ve got our workshop manager looking at some alternatives with local suppliers. Car being delivered down next Thursday, can’t wait!
