I\'m sure some of the taller owners (one big advantage to being a short-arse is this isn\'t a worry to me:rollin ) have replaced the seat rails from the import cars to UK spec items as I believe they have more travel, or you can modify the existing rails. I\'m sure Scooby-Si will be along in a minute to tell the story!

yeah story is i aint dun it yet but i\'ll post the distructions again later they\'re around here n all somewhere:confused: stilll on my list of things to do & we\'re guna have a play with the passenger side first so i dont get stuck having to sit on the floor when/if we balls it up ;) lol. NB you can just buy UK seat rails although i recall they go nicely into the hundreds.....:eek:
I\'m 6\'1 with lanky legs & as you say bit of an issue but mines much better with the smaller wheel on & while heel toe braking aint guna happen it\'s not an issue & i dont recall the handbrake being an issue although i was gutted when i first went for a test drive & felt a bit squashed much better with the wheel small now it\'s cosy & i have got used to it & quite like it now although will as i say be getting rails tweaked so i can go all the way back for a few extra inches (maybe i should send an email out to all members with that "so you want a few extra inches" title? :rollin maybe not then)
Anyway er i\'ll get me coat that probably sounds worse the way i\'ve written that & to be honest i cant remember how bad the standard wheeled one was now may of been an issue with handbrake come & have a sit in one with an aftermarket steering wheel &/or a UK car or one with modified seat rails to see if that sorts you out?
