That looks like a really nice car in the advert.

I agree that there are more (much more) important things than seats.

The earlier PV (which was also produced along side the Amazon for a while) is known to have uncomfortable seats and people with PVs sometimes upgrade to Amazon ones. My PV happens to have early Amazon seats in the front. If these seats are better I'd hate to try the originals!

I imagine after fitting the poly bushes in the suspension the even better upgrade to the V70 seats was desirable (controversial)

As a daily driver the V70 seats might actually prove to be the better choice. I wouldn't let the look or non originality of the seats put you off the car, you could take your time and stick up a WTB advert in the appropriate section of the forum and see what turns up.

What ever turns up will most likely need new coverings. These are still being made in Sweden...
