^^ indeed they are, 1 is yet to be Pimped :unibrow::ninja:

loving the seats...looks pimp...this car seems to be a bit of a whore atm though haha :) probably been around just as much as some of them romanian gals...:)

I think the interior needs alot more work for those porka seats to fit in... i think there's a belgian mk4 polo that i've seen with everything trimmed

if the seats were loose who ever had the car should have noticed and checked them before it got to the stage of fatigue and the whole lot pulling through

Work in progress mate. Cant do everything at once!

as long as it's on the to-do list... 8-)

what i was tryna get across was that those seats in that colour will take alot of work to 'fit-in' with the rest of the interior

not sayin it all needs to be done immediately :lol:

Yer there next on the list. Gettin the 8v bits in the door cards trimmed to the same colour as the seats and other little bits. might even change the colour all together. haven't decided yet!

in all fairness the seats would have been fine and safe for a while ... but as they were bolted to a thin piece of metal after some time of bouncing along the road the metal floorpan would of and did fatigue..... hence why the bolt's pulled out!!!! i'll pop the pics of the floorpan up later but its fairly hideous!!!

What if you had an accident though, how well would the floor pan have stood up then?

Those red leather seats in the above picture are lush!

Thats why we had to get the old seats out. When I used to pull away if the passenger wasnt holding onto the door the seat would tip right back. God knows what would have happened in a crash. Porsche seats are propely welded and bolted in and wont move in a crash!

Red seats in a red car :thumbsup: spot on. With the rest of the interior trimmed up to match, that'll be smart.

That was fun though :lol:

well to be honest proberly not that safe in a crash! but a damn site better than having to hold on for fear of the seat tipping completly back!!! like they were..... hmm..... danny's plans for the car are sweet is going to look very gtood when its done ...... engine included!

i know Dave (test richie) he would never have let them seats get to an unsafe level, dont forget it was owned by someone else before you and after dave so surely that person is responsable for checking the safety of them. if you knew they were dangerous then a) why did you buy the car and b) keep driving it like it. so stop bitching at other peoples work and get on with a retrim to make them look like they are meant to belong in that car.

spot on in my opinion :thumbsup:

Saw this in the car park at ultimate dubs, i only recognised it by the numberplate...it doesn't look like a show car anymore that's for sure...tatty.

Second to that, looked gawping.

I didn't see it so can't comment, sounds a shame tho.

So the seats were just magically bolted through the floor plan ? tbh, the teledials what made the car a show car, it changes the look of it. Remember before the teledials it was on ATS classics, and then it didn't look like a show car. same bodymods, just different wheels!

We getting pics of this or what??

Getting impatient :p

I'm sure it wont take much to get it back to a high standard! :)

just needs a wash and some rims and it'll be back on form 8-)

i still preferred the TT's though

The seats are sweet but they do look so lost in there, nearly enough space for a 3rd in the middle!!

And I must say, great parking! :lol:
