Two Mirco Classic seats in black velour, 624 for the pair. Fibreglass shells, fixed back, side mount, FIA 8855-1999, four or six point harness compatible, HANS friendly, no head support, for 32 to 36 inch waists and any height.
Two Classics
The Classic is the period-shaped Mirco, and a pair of them is what a two-seat historic or a Mk1 Escort wants rather than one bucket and one standard seat. Both from the same batch, one order.
Two singles less ten
The single Classic in velour is 317; two are 634. The pair is 624. Ten pounds and one delivery is the saving, and that is how we price every seat pair.
The shape
Open at the shoulders with no lateral head support, and it suits any height. Homologated, so it goes into a class that needs the FIA label without looking like a modern seat in an old car.
Harnesses and HANS
Four or six point compatible and HANS friendly. Six point with a head and neck restraint.
FIA and fitting
FIA 8855-1999, expiry on each seat’s label. Side mount; mounts and frames separate. Tell us the car.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Mirco Classic FIA Is Now on Display At GSM Performance, and New Mirco Classic FIA Seat Now Online. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will I fit in this seat?
The maker sizes this seat for drivers with a 32in to 36in waist. Those are the paper numbers; how a seat actually feels to sit in and climb out of is a different question, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so call us with your height and waist and we will give you the honest answer.
Is it FIA approved, and for how long?
Yes, it carries FIA 8855-1999 homologation. Every FIA seat has a not-valid-after year printed on its homologation label, and that label date is what a scrutineer checks, so look at the label on the seat you receive and check it against your championship regulations. Buying new means you get the freshest label the maker currently produces.
What do I need to fit it to my car?
This is a side-mount seat: it hangs between side brackets, the motorsport-style stack with fine height and angle control. You will need the car-specific frame, and a sliding runner if you want fore-and-aft adjustment. Our guide on base mount versus side mount walks through the whole stack, and tell us your car and we will quote the full kit.
Does it work with harnesses and a HANS device?
The shell takes 4 point compatible and 6 point compatible. If you are planning the full seat, harness, and HANS setup, tell us the car and we will spec it end to end.
How do I know it will feel right, not just fit on paper?
Fair question, because makers publish widths and weights, never feel, and two seats with identical numbers can feel nothing alike in the car. We keep the ranges on display in the Nottingham showroom, you are welcome to come and sit in them, and if you cannot get to us, call and describe your build, as the team sit in these seats every day. Our head support measurements guide shows the kind of real-world data we collect.
