MINI Cooper S R52 130R Fast Road Trackday Head Support Bucket Seats 02-08

Vehicle-Specific Barbarian Racing Seat Package for MINI Cooper S R52 02-08

About the MINI R52 Cooper S Fitment

The R52 Cooper S combines the compact first-generation MINI chassis with an open-top body, making seating position and upper-seat clearance particularly important. A well-sized performance seat can improve support while keeping the driving position usable on the road.

Cabin and installation notes: Check lower width against the tunnel and door, and pay particular attention to upper-seat and head-restraint clearance around the convertible interior and roof mechanism. A reclining seat is generally the more flexible option where everyday access and adjustment matter.

Seat Model and Specification

130R Wide Head-Support Fixed-Back Fibreglass Bucket Seat

The Barbarian Racing 130R combines a generous lower seating area with a high, wrap-around head-restraint design. At 54cm across the lower shell and 61cm at its widest upper point, it gives substantially more room around the hips and thighs than the compact DRUID, ASCARI or MINA designs.

Why choose the 130R? It suits drivers who want the visual and upper-body character of a more enclosed track-style seat but need more lower-body room than the narrower shells provide. The black performance-weave trim gives it a technical, modern finish.
