RECARO |  | Recaro needs no introduction to TBMW readers and it reckons the reclining Sportster CS design is the ultimate sport seat. Developed for those who don't want compromise on functionality or comfort, the reclining race shell is a hybrid construction made from steel and polymer materials including carbon, Kevlar and GRP.
Though these seats use a complex blend of materials the design for them is relatively simple: backrest and headrest are all one piece but as the headrest is fully upholstered and the back rest includes well-defined side bolsters these seats offer maximum support exactly where you need it.
These Recaro seats are available in a variety of colour/material options, from the basic Nardo Black and Artista Black to Ambla-Leather Black and a number of Dinamica Suede colour choices.
Recaro Sportster CS seats are available from Demon Tweeks and you can expect to pay around £750 each. So if you're looking to invest in some of the best seats available for your performance motor visit www.demon-tweeks.co.uk or call 01978 664555 to order yours. | | Contact Demon Tweeks on 0978 664555 www.demon-tweeks.co.uk |
