Cheers james

Really nice but don,t look like microcell in the pics? Are these from a scimitar or something similar?

I was always led to believe that microcell was the material used which is a type of perforated vinyl?

My cooper s contour seats had microcell panels in the centre and a lot of early Escort seats and Karobe seats are the same.

I have however seen small 'microcell' badges similar to contour badges so might be off the mark with this one?

The pics you have there may be 'microcell' seats but I have never seen them in a mini? Have you fitted them as they look quite wide bases? They may turn out to be rare and valuable I don't know? Have they got 'microcell' badges.

 They are slightly similar in design to contours with the ribbed panels but not perforated and contours weren't recliners more bucket seats

To be honest they are quite narrow and fit perfectly and dont touch on the sides... on the plus side they fold up on thereselves aswell which makes getting in the back a breeze.... il find some pics of them fitted
