Is there an easy fix for my passenger seat that is stuck in one position and will not slide backwards or forwards?

If I have to take it to a mechanic, any ideas on price?  Thank you

It's only 2 bolts at the front to remove the whole seat. It's a very simple mechanism, so you should be able to see pretty easily what's stuck.
Assuming you have standard seats that is.

Is this for a classic Mini or modern BMW MINI?

Common problem on very early R50 MINI's.....I fitted the later seats (secondhand) to fix problem for good.
