Thanks a lot. About my car : equipped with Corbeau Seats ( English Brand) . Perfect look and reclining . But poor back fitting when cornering . If you have suggestions …

I have the standard reclining seats in my 1999 Plus 8 and find them supportive when cornering, they have quite a bit of lateral support..

You might be able to pick up a pair or at least try a ride in another car with them fitted to see if they are to your liking.

I have the old style bucket seats. I have no problems with them. Just returned from a five week 6000 km road trip, comfy and no back problems. I used full harness for spirited motoring.

Never had a problem with the seats in the 79 +8, more comfortable than the 07 4/4 I have now.


.+8 Now gone for a 1800 4/4. Duratec in bright yellow.

That is a very nice car. I see you have a bimini top for protection from the sun, if we get any more summers like the last one I expect many more of us will be needing one.

The +8 will be very different to the Lotus's characteristics, less precise and agile, but more fun, and that V8 engine noise is very addictive.

Very nice indeed. Even if it does have someone's camp bed for a roof.

Love the dash too.
