Hi all..... In two minds whether to keep or sell these so I would like to get an idea of what I could sell for... There is a pair of left and right and not both of the same hand... Have a few marks here and there as to be expected coming out of a cooper s from the late 60's .... Never been recovered but the foam base is not what it used to be....these fold flat so ideal for a mini.

I have no idea what they're worth, but I'd be interested if they come up for sale at a reasonable price!

I was going on the fact I saw a restored pair of contour microcell seats went for £600 these need work so factor that in? Maybe more who knows, ebay might see them near to £450 its a bit of an unknown really. I personally like em and if it wasn't for the red piping might have made you an offer on them

If sports pack seats can go for hundreds of pounds then I'm sure these are worth more seen as though they are rarer, look better....the list goes on
Good luck if you do decide to sell them, would love to have a set!

Depends, if theres a market for these.

 

Sportspack seats are selling because they are the later, boss type, comfy seats with headrest. If your using a mini daily, upgrading from older seats to newer seats is a typical thing. Not wanting classics or buckets, the next best option are the MPI seats.

 

The microcell seats, basically you would be looking at someone specifically requiring them for a restoration or a car that isnt driven as often in my opinion. The lack of choice in colours will also hinder the price and you will need a matching rear seat cover in most cases.

they look almost same as factory recliners I have in my mk2 cooper, I would think someone would pay £250 each for them if you threw in the back seat cover.
