If you’re restoring, modifying, or simply refreshing the interior of a Classic Mini, one of the best upgrades you can make is swapping out the original seats for something more supportive. Whether you’re looking for retro-style fixed-back bucket seats or a classic-inspired reclining sports seat, we’ve built a range of seat packages tailored specifically for the Classic Mini. These packages include everything you need for a smooth installation, making your Mini more enjoyable to drive and look at, without the stress of trial-and-error fitment.
In this blog, we’ll walk through what’s included in each package, highlight a few of our favorite seat combinations, and explain why these setups work so well in the compact interior of the Classic Mini.
What’s Included in Our Classic Mini Seat Packages
Each seat package includes a pair of seats (either fixed-back or reclining), along with a pair of vehicle-specific Endurance Motorsport Classic Mini sub-frames. These sub-frames are designed to bolt directly into the original mounting points on your Mini’s floor, removing the guesswork and fabrication that often comes with universal brackets.
That means no cutting, welding, or custom work, just a clean, bolt-in install that saves time and gives you a solid mounting base. The seat frames are low-profile to maintain a natural driving position in the Mini, and they’re also finished in black for a tidy, factory-style appearance.
Classic Mini Sub-frames: Easy, Direct Installation
The Endurance Motorsport Classic Mini sub-frames are specifically developed for the Classic Mini chassis and follow the exact layout of the factory floor. These frames use a 291mm wide bolt pattern, which makes them fully compatible with any base-mounted Cobra bucket seat or Cobra reclining sports seat.
They’re also a perfect match for Corbeau reclining sports seats, as these share the same 291mm bolt pattern. This bolt pattern consistency is what allows us to offer complete packages with different seat styles, knowing they’ll fit securely to the same frame without modification.
Thanks to these frames, installation is as simple as bolting the seat to the frame and then bolting the frame to the car. It’s a clean and reliable setup that’s been used by many Classic Mini owners for fast road, show, and period-style builds.
Bucket Seat Options: Fixed Back Style with Retro Charm
For a traditional look with extra support, our fixed-back Cobra Classic, Cobra Clubman, and Cobra Monaco seats are some of the most popular options in these packages. These seats maintain the narrow dimensions needed to fit the Mini’s tight interior while giving you a deeper bucketed shape that holds you better through corners.
Each model has its own vibe, whether you’re going for motorsport-inspired simplicity or classic heritage looks. Some versions include bespoke trim upgrades, like contrast piping, classic vinyl finishes, or retro-style materials like houndstooth.
Reclining Seat Options: Comfort and Adjustability
If you want a sportier seat with everyday usability, our Classic Mini packages also include Cobra and Corbeau reclining seats. Models like the Cobra RSR or Corbeau Classic Recliner blend traditional looks with side bolsters, harness slots, and reclining mechanisms, all in a size that works well with the Mini’s tight cabin.
These seats are a great choice for long-distance driving or when you’re building a car for mixed road use. The reclining function also helps with access to the rear seats while keeping the period-correct appearance intact.
Our Favourite Packages and Popular Choices
From retro-inspired houndstooth interiors to minimalist track setups, we’ve built combinations to match all sorts of Classic Mini builds. Some of our most popular packages include:
- Cobra Clubman seats in black vinyl with matching sub-frames

- Corbeau reclining seats paired with Endurance sub-frames for a mix of style and comfort
Every package is designed to install easily, look right at home inside the Mini, and most importantly, feel great behind the wheel.
