[G Smith]

2021 A Class - i got into my car and tried to move the seat forward but its stuck and wont move forward or backwards?

Have a look under the seat and see what's jamming the mechanism - as likely as not something will have fallen down and jammed it

I've a bent & mangled 50p somewhere that I eventually fished out of the seat runner of my Omega. The coin had been sat against the runner for some time but when I powered the seat all the way back to hoover it out, the coin then moved & stopped the seat from moving forward again. The coin had to be destroyed to remove it.

The 1971 Coinage Act states: "No person shall, except under the authority of a licence granted by the Treasury, melt down or break up any metal coin."
