Recaro seats - cloth, electric

[Jack4688]

SOLD

I can confirm these have arrived with the buyer in Finland

[Jack4688]

They are on their way to Finland, I will confirm the sale on this thread once the new owner has taken delivery

[Spillies]

These seats are already sold?

[Jack4688]

Payment received for these. It's been taking a while because my priorities have been with my new house

[Jack4688]

Yes. S2 Avant with sunroof. What difference does that make?

Only picked these up at the weekend but I cannot get a comfortable position for my body. I am asking for £750 for them which is what I paid just three days ago. Pick up from Huddersfield, but I can take them with me to Leicester or Herefordshire if one of those is more convenient.

I was amazed at their condition when I picked them up given their probable age - the cloth is in great condition apart from a small mark on one of the passenger side leg bolsters and some slight wear to the stitching on the outside driver's bolster.

Photos from MattS2's advert for them:

What were you fitting these into that you couldn't get a comfortable position?
Did it have a sunroof?

Only trouble with private couriers is what happens when things go wrong. Those seats are too nice to export anyway lol

That's why I am a bit nervous about shipping them off hundreds or thousands of miles away

There are many Private couriers working in Europe. If you pick up one with good references should be alright. Price would be around 1 Pound per 1kg. I just have use them to bring over some oak doors (10) to UK and everything was alright. Parcel force would quote more then doors cost

Thats not bad at all and i don't think it will put people of. I posted a £30 MINT B3 interior boot lid trim of my 90 20v to russia which weighed less than 3kg packed and that cost £45.00 (parcelforce) and he didn't bat an eyelid. When you think what your seats weigh and i know they are heavy ( but oh so nice to use ) compared to my 3kg package, £260 starts to look good! Just pack it bomb proof with lots of bubble wrap and a double layer of heavy duty cardboard free from your local recycling centre. Yes it's a pain but worth it. Best of luck with it!

Getting somewhere with shipping quotes - USA looks like £260

[Jack4688]

I've used them a few times for alloys, are they any good for international shipping? I think they need a postal code for even just a quote

I used paisley freight to ship seats once, worked well

I was going to suggest them, they deliver a pair of seats for a set price.
