Classic Mini Bucket Seat Guide
The Classic Mini (1959–1967) story...
The Classic Mini has become one of the most cult cars to ever hit the road. Once you start using your Classic Mini for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support.Â
On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner.Â
None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand.Â
We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Classic Mini seat guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
Recommended brackets:
We recommend the Cobra Classic Mini seat frame for our recommended Cobra bucket seats. (Double locking slider)

We also recommend using the adaption bars with the Mini frame to fit a small range of base mounted reclining seats.
