My mk3 S had the low back recliners in the same navy vinyl.

Not sure if you can fit the covers onto a later low back reclining seat that are pretty common and should be cheap.

Hi Steve.

low back recliners are on my wishinglist, black one's are oké for me.

Just bought these :

My "new" cockpit

Be interested to hear what you make of the quality of those seats when you get them.

Will let you know

Looking good, BUT that should be a wooden clothes peg on the choke to be period correct.
Nice looking seats similar to the Corbeau gt4.

Here's a pic of the optional mk3 recliners

My Mini is from the 70th so plastic it has to be

I think my original seats are no optional mk3 recliners

Not sure, just a google pic.

The low back recliners I bought are oke but to small for me
so I will have to sell them on to someone els.

Will buy others when they are sold but not from the internet, I have
to see see them first and try them.

Did buy the otherday an very good set original LP883 4.5x10 steel Cooper S rims.
On them are four almost new Yokohama tyres A008

Still have to buy the exhaust at the IMM in the UK.
Getting an spare Rose Petal wheel in the back and puting

Them seats look like copies of Corbeau Classic Alpines. I have some, they are very narrow round the hips

Yes they are a bit narrow round the hips but
after a while they will be oké.
Especially in the cornering work they are better than
the original seats I have now
