About Tillett Car Seats

[Tillett Car Seats]

Many of you will know me as I have been in the club over 30 years and previously exhibited at Stoneleigh and enter the WSCC Speed series and have built and still own Westfields.

 

But a quick intro about us.

 

First thing is we are not the factory but are the largest stockist of car seats in the UK and probably the world. We are based in Edenbridge Kent. We have a small showroom where you can try seats.

 

It all came about when I bought a second hand sport 2000S car around 2008 that was fitted with Westfield race seats.  Being a well built lad who likes his ice creams I didn't really fit. A trip to Autosport the next January and I came across Tillett.  Long story short but a B5 was perfect for me but nobody carried stock and the factory lead time then was about 8 weeks.

 

So I became a stocking reseller and a few months later took delivery of about 50 seats.  It's not our main business which is air conditioning but it is a fun sideline and introduces me to some great people and projects. 

 

And that is our model - to sell from stock which seems quite unusual in the motorsport world. The range of seats has expanded including the FIA seats and so has our stock holding.  Lead times vary from 8 weeks to over 30 weeks depending upon the model and time of year. We sell about 200 - 250 seats a year and ship all around the world as well.

 

We offer a special discount to WSCC members only given our background.

 

Tillett are not cheap but they are the best shell seat in terms of shape and rigidity.  The seat is your contact point with the car so must be correct.

 

Feel free to call us if you need any advice whether for Westfield or any other car you may own.  By appointment you are welcome to pop in and try the seats too.
