I am 6\' 3" and it is fine ......... I have most helpfully posted a picture with my legs in the classic sitting position and as you can see ther is plenty of clearance between the legs and steering wheel.

Just remember a smaller steering wheel obscures some of the dials ........... in my case, indicators and fuel.

Perfect size for tracking, you don\'t have to move your hands for any corners.

I am 6\'4 and no lightweight ;) even with a 280mm mom steering wheel I still had to remove my shoes to drive one. In my own car I have fitted a lower Recaro seat and had the steering column raised, I am sure it\'s got to me the most comfortable FD in the UK for any tall person to sit it :)
