We're in the process of ordering several Tillett seats for clients/vehicles we service, and looking to get to an optimized volume for shipping from the UK. I've been told by Tillett that a single automotive seat will cost upwards of $375-$450 to get shipped. However, a pallet of 12 seats should get the landed cost to our facility down to about a 1/6th of that (estimated).

 

Tillett is the factory race seat manufacturer for Caterham, and offer a variety of seats that bolt into a Seven. For those competing at sanctioned events (e.g. SCCA, NASA, etc.), Tilllett now offer FIA-approved versions of several seat models (e.g. B6F). For wide chassis (SV) Caterham Sevens, Tillett also offers a *wider* seat (B6-XL) that will bolt into these cars. The Tillett auto racing seat gallery, with pricing/options/etc. can be found here. To keep it simple, we'll sell the seat at Tillett's advertised web price, converted to US dollars at the time of our transaction with Tillett, plus actual shipping/duty from the UK and to your door. If you are in the market for 1 or 2 seats, participating in this order could save a couple hundred dollars (or more).

 

We'll finalize our order to Tillett no later than 1/15.

 

Cheers,

-Bruce
