For over 40 years Cobra Seats has been manufacturing exclusively in the United Kingdom, earning a reputation that unites innovative technology, quality of design and functional elegance.
It’s a reputation built on passion. In the 1960’s Len Dunsford was acknowledged as one of the country’s best vehicle trimmers – his work graced racing cockpits used by names like Moss, McQueen and Clark.
Nowadays modern heroes place their trust in Cobra’s ability to combine the very highest safety standards with weight saving technology… and Cobra is still a family run company – grandson Mark, who is Managing Director, shares his father’s and grandfather’s “hands on” passion for the art of building the finest seats and car interiors.

DRIVERS USING COBRA SEATS ARE FIRST AND SECOND IN THE DRIVERS CHAMPIONSHIP AT THE HALFWAY STAGE OF THE SEASON.
The three races at Oulton Park took the British Touring Car Championship to the halfway stage of a fascinating season - with an unofficial race to see which driver would reach the summer break with a lead in the Drivers Championship.
Well, at the halfway stage of the British Touring Car Championship season, drivers using Cobra seats are one and two in the standings with Jake Hill just four points ahead of Tom Ingram … and Josh Cook and Colin Turkington are still very much in the mix, lying fifth and sixth in the standings.
JAKE HILL AT THE DOUBLE DOUBLE!
Following his impressive form at Snetterton Jake Hill claimed his second double of the season with wins in race 1 and race 2 at Thruxton – the fastest circuit on the BTCC schedule.
However, it wasn’t a day without controversy and fellow “Cobra Boy” Tom Ingram felt somewhat aggrieved that his first place across the line in race 2 was relegated to a third place in the steward’s room leaving him with “just” two third place podiums on the day.
ANOTHER CLEAN SWEEP OF WINS FOR DRIVERS USING COBRA SEATS.
This time it was “Cobra driver” Jake Hill who enjoyed a double delight claiming two wins in the first two races of the day, putting in perhaps the most impressive drive of his career to date in claiming his 14th ever BTCC win in race 2.
Race 3 provided a clean sweep of the podium for Toyota and for drivers using Cobra seats: Rob Huff, starting 14th on the grid and taking full advantage of his choice of soft tyres, cut through the field to take the final win of the day. For the immensely experienced former World Touring Car Champion this wasn’t just his first win of the season it was his first win in the British Touring Car Championship for 20 years
ONE-TWO, ONE-TWO!
The second round of this years British Touring Car Championship started of with a couple of “one – two’s” for drivers using Cobra seats.
In race one, four-times BTCC Drivers’ Champion Colin Turkington had a pole to flag victory in his Team BMW 330e M Sport, followed home by fellow “Cobra driver” Josh Cook whose spirited drive saw him move up from fifth on the grid to finish second in his LKQ Euro Car Parts with SYNETIQ Toyota Corolla GR Sport.
WELCOME TO THE BTCC 2024.
There have been an awful lot of changes to the face of The British Touring Car Championship in 2024 – not least a field reduced to 20 runners, but some things haven’t changed: Half the field have chosen to put their trust in Cobra seats … and in the first meeting of the season at Donington Park the winners of all three races jumped out of Cobra seats to enjoy their moments of triumph.
