Hi

I will be leaving Sydney on 6 March for several weeks holiday in Germany taking in the Stuttgart and Essen shows.
In my travels I would like to visit retailers of 914 sports seats.
I have pencilled in BF Torino and Recaro and probably Mittelmotor.
Any other suggestions to see sports seats ?
I like the minimalistic look of the BFT Nurburgrings but from local mechanics here,I believe the mountings and rails are not the best.
As I like the seat a bit forward,I need a curve in the bolster so it doesn't tear it when getting in or out.
any suggestions for my travels ?

TIA

While not local don’t forget shipping options from the USA, I believe GTS is well regarded.

If you are passing thru the north of Italy then you have D'eser seats in Turin.

thanks falcor75 and maf914 for the correct replies
Italy is unlikely but the Konig/Scheel site is an addition to the list
I didn't know Konig were still going
I am just looking for what's on the market in Germany apart from the BF Torino range

cheers

Hey Dennis ,
there is a big motorsport store very close to Messe Essen. Will you visit the Techno Classica in April this year? Is this what you are looking for?

https://www.sandtler24.de/sandtler-classic-sportsitze

It is only a 20min drive to Bochum. Don`t know if there are on stock.
Cheers Dirk

Hey Dennis,
there is also one near Koblenz, half way from Stuttgart to Essen.
I bought my oil lines and break stuff over there.
ISA racing, don't know about the retail store. Stock is also very good:

Got enough time left ?

cheers

Mittelmotor is in Bochum. Nice place, but not very big.

I´ll be in Essen TechnoClassic too.
