I think (sure duncan will correct me if I'm wrong :p;)) that they *are* metro seats, remodelled a little (the frame at the bottom) to fit Minis. They're in all cars about that age - from '92 onwards (my half leather ones in the ol' cooper were fab!)

If you're looking to replace the covers.. you could always try Newton Commercial (http://newtoncomm.co.uk) :D
although they can be a bit pricey..

You can always get some very nice seats from P&L Mini (http://www.plmini.com)

Huddersfield Mini Spares (www.minispares-online.co.uk) might be worth a shot, have always had good service from them in the past.

Spot on LnL :D except they were fitted from July / Aug 1993 (L reg onwards) :p ;)
The Cooper trimmed versions of these seats are my favourites (fitted to Coopers from 93 to 95) but are pricey - several hundred second hand :eek:

do not get the cobra classic bucket seats as the foam in them is very soft and starts to sag very quickly as i had one in my mini before i got the cobra clubman seats which are far better and you cant get anyone in the back seats very easily :D
