Back in stock: Recaro Pole Position ABE, and the Sportster CS back on display
Some deliveries get unpacked quietly. This one had people wandering over from the counter. A big consignment from Recaro landed with us this week and the Pole Position ABE is back on the shelf, in black velour and in Ambla leather with Dinamica suede centres, after a spell where we could not get them for love nor money.
Cameron had the camera out before the pallet was off the wagon, and the photographs through this page are all from today. We are really pleased about this one, and honestly a bit relieved. The Pole Position is the seat people ask for by name, and telling callers it was out of stock never got any easier. The pairs and single seats are live on the site right now, the numbers are limited, and there are eight seats in the building ready for collection or immediate dispatch.

- Eight seats in the building, ready for collection or immediate dispatch
- Limited numbers, and this seat does not hang around

The listings, pairs and singles
Three ways to buy them. The single seat carries the trim options, so you can have it in the velour or the Ambla leather and suede, and the pair listings are the two trims boxed for both sides of the car. Every one of them is on the shelf here, not on back order.

Fourteen photographs came off Cameron’s camera before the kettle went on. Here are the ones worth your time.






And the Sportster CS is back on display

The same wagon solved another regular phone call. The Sportster CS is back on display, and the pair on the floor is in the Ambla leather with Dinamica suede centres, the trim this seat looks its best in.
If the Pole Position is the race seat you can live with, the Sportster CS is its reclining cousin: the same hold through the shoulders, a proper recline and a tilt for anyone climbing in behind, which is why it goes into so many daily driven fast cars. One pair in that trim is here now, and the single seat listing carries the rest of the options.
Sit in the two of them side by side and the difference explains itself in about thirty seconds.

If you have not sat in one, the short version of forty years of reputation: a fibreglass shell, side mounted, that holds you like a race seat while staying genuinely liveable on the road. The ABE version is the road and track approved one, which is why it ends up in so many fast BMWs and hot hatches that still do the commute.
The velour is the classic look and takes daily use well. The Ambla leather with the suede centres is the one that makes people stop at the showroom window, and it wipes clean, which velour does not. Single seats start at £1,039.50 including VAT.
If you are anywhere near us, book an appointment and come and sit in them. Cameron looks after seat fittings here and this is his favourite kind of morning: both trims down off the rack, the Sportster on the floor beside them if a recliner is closer to what the car needs, and a straight answer on which suits the way you drive. Bring the car if you want him to check your mounting while you are here.
Too far away? Order today and it leaves today. When this batch is gone we are back to waiting on Recaro, so if one of these has been on your list a while, we would not sit on it.
