Seen a few with S1 seats in, works well.
Ive got calibra turbo seats in one of mine as well, minis arent actually as cramped as you would think seat wise as the doors dont intrude miles in like modern cars, especially if you lose the bins off the bottom

Those seats would go no drama at all!
Ive got 2 mate, one I built for my ex girlfriend but ended up having back when we split up, its a 998cc on a MG electronic dizzy with an ally cage (she was 17 so I was keeping the weight down) and calibra turbo leather seats.
The other is a half built project with a vauxhall engine in it, but i might go for something different when I dig it back out at the end of 2011 and crack back on with it.

Not many mate, both been in storage for about 6 years now, and I didnt have a camera phone or anything back then.
Got a couple of the 998 but thas all, Bought it like this just to stick a number plate on and then scrap the car leaving the plate on the logbook to avoid retention charges, but when we had a good look round it, it was actually a tidy car, so we decided to do it up instead
This is what it was like when I last took a picture of it, when it had just been painted (excuse the number plate on wonky cable ties, hadnt drill the holes in the new front yet)

No mate, but it is made of aluminium so probably not much use for anything other than looks, although at least its well padded so you cant hit your head on it, lol
It came out of a hillclimb car after it got disqualified when a magnet didnt stick to it, lol
