M Sport Seats

From experience I'm pretty sure the electric ones don't quite give the same range of movement, due to all the gubbins underneath them.
So if you're tall or like to sit really low then manual adjusting ones may be better.
My ideal now, after trying many options, would be heated but manually adjustable.

However, to throw a spanner in the works, a few days back I saw [ref]Usel[/ref]'s E85 with the E89 MSport seats in. They fit so well I almost overlooked them, but they are so comfortable and surely they now have to be an option to consider.
 
Hello everyone!

These are local to you but they are manual and not heated. They are worth more like £600 rather than £750 imo but there are not many m-sports about atm.

Quite easy to make them electric if you want to.

Yes I've been in contact with the seller of these. He seems to think they are heated and that most seats were made with the elements installed from factory. After a glance at the switch panel on their car, there's no button for the heated seats. I know that non electric and non heated M sports seats exist so I'm not so sure.

After doing some more research I'd be happy with manual seats due to a bit of weight saving and being able to access the cubby holes more quickly.....although they may be filled with subs one day....
E89 seats are an interesting thought, I will have a read up over the weekend at those

These are a nice find! I shall look into those!
 
I have both in my 2 cars and prefer the Manual seats a Enuff says Manual have a better range of positions than Electric seats 🤔👍

Having looked at new photos of those seats they are definitely not heated as there is no wiring under the seat for heated elements.
