Hi guys, I have some Lotus elise Mk1 seats in (I believe) red leather

I got these with a project car but I have taken it in another direction from the previous owners plans

really nice seats and surprisingly comfortable, drivers seat has an adjustable lumbar support controlled by a hand pump on the side.

Should be relatively easy to fit using the two bolts on the underside of the seat

drivers seat is slightly marked on the leather but has not been ripped so should be fixable if it bothers you.

How much do you think there worth and where would you sell them?

I think these are a fantastic seat option, light, still retain a air of luxury, can be used with OEM seat belts (unlike a lot of buckets).

The MX5 owners are also fond of these. On their forums I think I have seen them sell at the top end of around £300.

I paid 250 for mine with the original subframes and in prefect condition. That was collected. With the original frames and a set of mini it was easy to knock up a set that would fit between the two.

A lot will depend how much the colour fits the persons existing interior. Imo
