Over here is Australia the recaro seats are pretty rare and when you do find a pair they are usually very shabby and they still command a high price.. This has lead me to look for a suitable substitute..

I have one criteria they must suit a E30 and must look period for what was in a E30 I dont want no Sparco drift seats.

What you think of these Alfa seats, almost look like Recaro's.

Here are some on ebay....

Now if you could find a GTA interior, that is the pinacle of alfa interiors. Imagine if you could get the door cards matched?

If I was to get a hot hatch it would be this. So much passion. Do they do red leather in the GTA?

Wow I didnt expect such a positive response, I was a little concerned about the Alfa badge too then I thought I could just get a BMW one made and stitched in if it really bothered me.....

Seams they only make the ones I picture above in a 4 door (apparently) and not a coupe so that means its no tilt and slide.

Can get these one but I dont like them as much as they are a bit modern looking
