Recently bough a landy with some Recaro's badly retrofitted. Anyway I was wondering what car they're from before I put them up for sale. My feeling was Vauxhall GTE of some vintage. They appear in good condition with very little wear even on the bolsters that usually take a hammering. A good clean and they should come up like new, they're just not to my taste especially in a land rover that's going to get dirty.

Definitely not VW of any kind. I think you're on the right track with Vauxhall, probably from the 80s.

I would have said early 80s Vauxhall Cavalier/Astra/Manta, not seen any with that centre panel trim only the Cavalier MK2 Antibes model but that didn't use Recaros
Forget that got beaten to it!

Thanks all. Definitely the Manta ones then. Looks like the fade of stripes towards lower seat back and back of cushions is also original and not just sun bleaching. Guess they'd be quite desirable to the right person and as said wasted / unwanted in my land rover.

Listed on the Manta owners club forum as that's where they're likely to attract most interest and be of best use.
