Arv Mc Slow Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I am looking to change my leather seats to a set of caterhams carbon R500 seats, plus cash.my leather is in good condition and are nice and comfortable, but I feel my R500 should have the Carbon seats. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mankee Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I can't help you directly, but it may be worth heading to the Caterham showroom in Crawley. Towards the end of their recent grand opening day, there was a lonely brand new kevlar Tillett on adjustable runners just begging for a new home. They may well still have it. From memory, it was £400.Also, is that R500 GBR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arv Mc Slow Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Thanks, yes it is R500GBR, do you know this car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makingff Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Have you tried Sevens and Classics? They had a few there when I had my car serviced there last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mankee Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Thanks, yes it is R500GBR, do you know this car?Not intimately, but the previous owner was around the Ipswich area and did a few trackdays at a local airfield that I helped to run. I didn't have a Caterham at the time (about 6 years or so ago) and that it was my dream car. And then I saw it up for sale at Sevens and Classics a couple of months ago! I think there's a few videos on YouTube of it going around Woodbridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1WEL Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I'd possibly be interested in buying your leather seats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arv Mc Slow Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Thanks Mankee, I never seen these before, funny how you know your own car by its sound, I expect most sound the same, but I can tell a difference in engine notes, from other R500's, weird..
