Re: Conquest century tyres

Hi,

Re: Daimler Century Back seat

Hello Antony,

thank you for the info. I also thought that it should be like that, but I have an obstacle somewhere and I can't push it all the way back.

Thanks a lot

Daimler Century Back seat

Hello,

one minor question. How to assign the rear seat. I just have it loose and there is a shift.

Thanks.
