The OMP First R at £294, OMP Champ-R at £318, Sparco Grid Q at £365, and Mirco RS2 3D Fibreglass at £354.50 sit a step up. The Mirco RTS-2 3D at £334, Cobra Imola Pro-Fit at £520, and Cobra Suzuka T GT at £603.50 are further options. The Sparco Evo QRT at £475 and Cobra Nogaro Circuit at £682.50 are the top of the range for an Octavia built properly for competition.

Competition seats for the OctaviaWhich bucket seat for a Skoda Octavia Mk2

The Cobra Monaco Pro FIA at £235 is the practical starting point for a fast road Octavia. The OMP Champ-R at £318 is well judged for the money at a lighter weight. For an Octavia built properly for competition, the Cobra Nogaro Circuit at £682.50 gives the strongest support here.

Reclining sport seats

The Sparco R100 Martini Racing at £291.66 and Auto Style Type JW at £245.60 are the accessible starting points. The Sparco R333 at £374.56 and Cobra Daytona at £499.17 sit a step up. The Cobra Misano Anniversary at £1374.17 is the top of the range.

Harnesses

Harnesses need a properly engineered harness barA 4-point, 5-point or 6-point harness with separate shoulder straps needs proper attachment points above and behind the seat. Fit a properly engineered harness bar before using anything above a 3-point belt.

The TRS Clubman 3-point bolt-in at £80 and 4-point clip-in at £100 both use the standard seat belt anchor points and do not need a bar. For 4-point competition use, the TRS Magnum 4-point FIA at £205 and the Takata Drift II at £229 are the step up.

For 6-point harnesses, a harness bar goes in first. The TRS Magnum 6-point Superlite FIA at £245, the Takata Drift III at £270, and the Schroth Profi 3×2 at £370.01 all suit an Octavia fitted with a harness bar for track use.

No. A 6-point harness needs anchor points above and behind the seat for the shoulder straps. Fit a properly engineered harness bar first.

A competition bucket holds you better through a corner but is harder to live with day to day. A reclining seat keeps more factory comfort while still improving on the standard seat.
