Going rate for a Recaro swap?

[Mike Roberts]

Say I traded my Recaros for some standard 200 seats, what's the going rate for £+seats my way??

Not looking to shaft anyone with eBay prices, just a favour to save them being traded in with the car when someone on here could benefit instead.

 

[chappo]

i would say £600, plus the swap,

 

[gazb197]

if i remember rightly i got £800 + standard seats my way.

 

[Cannit]

You did well! I would have said £600 plus 200 seats

 

[clio200cup]

so using the process of elimination, lets go for £700, lol.

 

[Cannit]

That's not literally 200 seats but just rs 200 seats btw. How anyone would get 200 seats......

 

[MikeLYR27]

Arnt recaros about the 900 figure 2nd hand normally? Id say as its a swap about 500 as your getting some in return.

i paid £500 from Renault for my Recaro,s ( swaped from another car ). inc fitting. lol

 

[Cannit]

Guess it's pretty varied then. Depends if you want a quick sale or hold out then

Mike - i am thinking of doing the same, issue i have is the airbags, would the standard seats side airbag have the same resistance as the Recaros? - i think so

 

[ryan197]

i got mine for £800 plus my seat (197)

 

[Mike Roberts]

Cool. RS200 seats seem to go for about 150-200, so if Recaros are about 900 then 700+seats seems about right?

It's doing it the other way that presents problems, as cars with standard seats have more airbags. Everything else is fine.

Woody, seems a bit pointless swapping Recaros for Recaros, no?

I havent seen any 200 seats sell on Ebay yet, but 197 ones seem to go for around £200. So based on that £200 sounds reasonable yeah. Will the dealer not notice if your Clio 200 gets traded in with plain 197 seats (ie not white/black) ?

99.9999% that they wont know any different.

 

[Mike Roberts]

I think I'd only do a 200 seat swap, to save aggro. Car might go next weekend, if someone wants a deal then shout up now!

 

[Cannit]

Where are you based? What would you take?
