Well I was going to get some Cobra Classics, but new they are worth a bomb these days.
I had a sit in my mate's MX5 the other day, they feel nice. Is anybody here running these in a Mini? Do they tilt enough for rear access?

Mounting the rails looks like a piece of cake. :D

I put a set in the Moke I used to have and found them to be very comfy and even tho I didn't need them to tilt forward to get in the back, they did have quite a bit of forward tilt ..

go the cobra classics kev. I put mine in a couple of months ago, and they are the best to sit in. I absolutely love them, and they have that classic look.
