    Seat ID assistance needed - fixed buckets

    I've been looking at a a car (BM '02) that has these seats installed. Car is long distance from me, so unable to verify the sellers claims they're PORSCHE seats. Nothing like I've ever seen. Anyone have an opinion?

    Thx Michel

    wondering if they are a scheel model circa '80's, as I haven't seen a Recaro like this. Admittedly my seat manufacturer model knowledge is neither comprehensive or detailed. Though typically SCHEEL can appear the more 'flamboyant'.

    Seat stitching pattern sort of dates them to 70's etc though the upper seat head restraint area seems later. Opinions Welkom .

    That picture of the seats has been altered, did the seller ask you to wire the money because his PayPal account is dormant?

    As far as I can tell, that is not a picture of a Porsche. The steering column is different, the door pin is different, and the side panel is different, among other things.

    He knows it is not a Porsche car, he wants to know if the seats are for a Porsche. Those are the ugliest seats I have ever seen, just the picture alone would make me run away, they look home made to me.

    Gents I enjoy forthright banter so don't get me wrong ... The seller of this car which as I first indicated was a 2002 is claiming the seats are a RECARO. Certainly none I recognise, nor would take home to meet mum.


    Cheers
