Uncomfortable Suzuki Swift seats - can I replace them?

I have just bought a lovely Suzuki Swift Automatic 2008 which drives beautifully. Unfortunately the driver's seat and back is extremely hard.

I have attached a padded seat (complete with padded back) which helps a little, but this does raise it to rather a high position even using the lowest adjustable position.

After being so comfortable in my old MX3, this has been rather a disappointment. Does anyone know if it is possible to have a more comfortable seat fitted to this model?

You can probably have a different seat fitted by Recaro, for example. (www.recaro.com/). Very expensive, though.
