I'm after some cheap but comfy bucket seats to replace my standard sport items. Now, obviously I know that sacraficing the cost is going to hinder the comfort of the seat. But, what is the cheapest reasonably comfy seat available?

Was looking at some Cobra Monaco S which I can get for 210 quid for the pair then subfames on top of that. Anyone rate the Cobra Monaco S?

No fixed buckets are that comfy TBH especially when old and all of the padding has worn down

slightly built and 5'10. Nowhere near fat

Just had a look at the Imola S they look awesome and £220 each from Demon Thiefs.

Anywhere cheaper than this?

Cheers guys

Get a sofa if you want 'comfiest', a car is for driving, not to pamper yourself
