Does anyone have them and what do you think of them? If anyone's local I'd appreciate being able to eyeball them.

Wife is kicking off that they will be uncomfortable!

Reading / Ascot way. I'm ok to travel say 90mins or so.

Marlow any good... i have a '22 8Y Vorsprung that has the upgraded seats for that year, Supersports were they.. ?

Or are you asking for the new '25 facelift carbon ones? - don't have the carbon ones.. sorry..
 
Marlow would have been fine but yeah I mean the carbon ones that used to be Europe only cars until recently.

Since not many responses, I share my brief experience:

I've test driven one with the carbon buckets, it was very short drive but based on that I'd say it's much safer to not buy them unless you get to test them. I'm quite a small guy and they felt great for that short test drive but they left me thinking how I'd get along with them on a longer trip. One notable thing is that you can't adjust the tilt angle of the bottom seat part, so it either fits you or not. It's close to my seat adjusts but might be too steep for somebody.

I'm in Milton Keynes if it helps. For me they were a must, that's the only reason i got the FL 8Y.

Sat on the basic sport seats yesterday. Although it's a very nice seat, I thought the nappa leather was way too slippery for that car. I'd prefer the microfiber upholstery much more but it's only available in full black for the basic seat, which looks quite plain.
