The Cobra Evolution Pro-Fit Tartan Edition, an FIA 8855-1999 homologated bucket seat. Part number NF-EVPF-TARTAN.

The tallest shell, in tartan

935mm against 900mm for the Imola and Suzuka, so this is the one for a taller driver, with a period trim and the FIA homologation kept.

Eight tartan patterns, hand trimmed in the UK and let into the centre panel rather than printed. Tell us which you want at checkout and we will confirm before the seat is made.

Side protection and an open aspect

The Evolution is known for both, which usually pull against each other. The side protection is high quality, and the head side support is an integrated open design rather than a closed surround, so climbing in and out is not the ordeal deep sided shells make it.

On a shared car, or one you get in and out of repeatedly over a weekend, that is worth more than the specification suggests.

Specification

935mm tall, 555mm wide, 720mm deep on a 500mm base, at 12.2kg. That base is the widest of the three, so measure your cockpit at floor level before ordering.

Side mount only. Harness facility for 4, 5 and 6 point belts. HANS compatible. High tensile mounting bolts supplied. Three year warranty.

All heights, 32 to 36 inch waist. The GT version is 30mm wider at 36 to 38 inches.

Choosing between the three shells

Cobra build three side mount competition shells and they differ where it matters, at the base and on the scales.

The Imola is 900mm tall on a 475mm base at 10.3kg, the narrowest base and so the snuggest lower hold. The Suzuka T is 900mm on a 490mm base at 9kg, the lightest of the three, and those extra 15mm mean a little less grip on your lower body. The Evolution is 935mm on a 500mm base at 12.2kg, the tallest and the widest based.

So it is a genuine choice rather than a ladder: snug and heavier, light and slightly looser, or tall and wide. Send us your height, your waist over your race kit, and the width between the sill and the tunnel, and we will tell you which one actually fits.

Seat only. Tell us the car for mounts and a subframe.

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 is a different question, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so call us and we will give you the honest answer.

What do I need to fit it to my car?
The car-specific frame for your vehicle, plus 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.

How do I know it will feel right, not just fit on paper?
Makers publish widths and weights, never feel, and two seats with identical numbers can feel nothing alike. We keep the ranges on display in the showroom, you are welcome to come and sit in them, and our head support measurements guide shows the kind of real-world data we collect.

Availability

Cobra seats are handcrafted in the UK

Each seat is built to the specification you choose, which is why the wait is what it is: on average around 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the trim and options.

Cobra do not allow queue jumping. Orders are produced in the order they are received, so the earlier yours is placed the earlier it is built.

Made to your specification

Because each seat is made for your order rather than picked off a shelf, a made-to-specification seat cannot be cancelled once it is in production, and our special order terms apply.

Working to a date, or not sure which trim to pick? Ring us before you order. Getting the specification right at the start is far easier than changing it later.

In-store displays:

We have a premium range of over 125 seats from brands including: Bimarco, Cobra, Corbeau, Sparco, OMP, Recaro, GP-Race, and Bride to name just a few brands we work with.

Alongside this, we also stock and display HANS devices, harnesses, race-wear, race-suits, FIA helmets and various other safety equipment. If you are looking to visit us to see and try any particular seat or product, please contact us in advance and we’ll be happy to help.

In-Store appointments:

Due to the specialist nature of our services, we do ask that you please contact us in advance to book an appointment. We have multiple slots available each day including selected availability at the weekend.

Working by appointment allows us to dedicate our time with you and provide a personal and professional service. We’ll always ensure you leave with the right equipment for your needs.
