Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) Reclining seats

Hello out there!
The only thing I miss in my 2004 Roadster is reclining seats.
Is it possible to have an exchange somewhere?
And, do you have any idea of the costs.
My current seats are as new as the car has only 7000 miles on the clock.
Appreciate any advice from you guys.
Ken.

Ken,
When I bough my first +4, it had fixed seats but Brands Hatch changed them for recliners but the cost was around £1500.00.

Hi Ken. I was quoted £2400 for a pair from Morgan, and that was four years ago. So I had a pair of tilting/reclining seats made for me by Shaun at Allon Whites, cost was about £1200, now listed at £1500 but in my opinion very good value. I had heated inserts fitted at the same time - superb in the cold weather. The Allon White seats have continuous adjustment of the tilt using a wheel, whereas the Morgan seats have a ratchet with fixed positions. He can also make the seats thicker/thinner/narrower/wider and give you more lumbar support, etc, however you choose.

Note - he will reuse your headrests. You can sell the old seats for a reasonable price - mine fetched £250.

No connection, just a happy customer.

I too had Shaun at Allon White replace mine about four years ago, best improvement I ever made to the Mog. I don't adjust the incline very often but the tilting mechanism makes it so much easier to put stuff behind the seats.

Thank you guys for the information.
It´s not cheap but probably worth it.
Ken.

Cheaper than buying them from Morgan! And better...
