Custom Motorsport Seat Fitting | Motordrive UK
Safety. Comfort. Performance — Tailored to You.
At Motordrive Seats, everything starts with you — the competitor.
Since our founding over 30 years ago, our focus has been simple: to deliver motorsport seats that combine ultimate safety, comfort, and performance.
Every Motordrive competition seat is hand-built in the UK to meet the highest FIA safety standards, ensuring the protection and performance that professional drivers and club competitors rely on worldwide.
Why a Custom Seat Fitting Matters
A race seat is not just equipment — it’s your connection to the car.
If a seat doesn’t fit your body correctly, it can compromise both comfort and safety.
That’s why Motordrive offers a bespoke seat fitting service, available in person or remotely (via phone or email).
Our goal is simple: to create a seat that fits you, not the other way around.
During your fitting, we will:
-
Help you choose a seat design that fits your shape, size, and driving position.
-
Adjust padding and support to hold you securely and comfortably through every corner.
-
Ensure that your seat meets FIA standards and provides optimal impact protection.
-
Offer custom shell and cover personalisation for a truly individual finish.
If you don’t fit your seat, you’re not safe — and if you’re not comfortable, you can’t perform.
Motordrive’s fitting process ensures you’re protected, comfortable, and ready to race at your best.

Built by Racers, for Racers
Motordrive was founded by Allan, a competitor who realised the seats he was using weren’t up to standard.
Driven to improve safety, Allan began manufacturing composite racing seats — and from those beginnings, Motordrive was born.
Over three decades later, our seats have been trusted by legends such as Carlos Sainz and Luis Moya, as well as hundreds of club drivers worldwide.
Today, under the ownership of Darren Meadows, also a motorsport competitor, the ethos remains unchanged:
Safety, style, and comfort — without compromise.
Darren and the Motordrive team continue to innovate, test, and evolve new designs to maintain our reputation as one of the world’s leading motorsport seat manufacturers.
