41 - Volvo seat August 2005

Volvo 340 seat with rake and lumbar adjustment kindly donated by nArrow builder Roy Gardiner, seat pan reduced in length and mounted as low on the frame as I can get it. Cheap plastic car seat cover (£21) just begged to be added as it was yellow!

Seat base

I said I mounted the seat 'as low as I could get it'. This proved to be too low and the rear tyre burned the bottom of the seat over big sudden bumps! Now I have replaced the seat base with a bike seat I hope the problem is gone, but I shall miss the wonderful 300 mile comfort of the sprung base of the original car seat.
