Thanks Chris
Strange thing is Greeni, I find the exact opposite. The standard XS seats did not give me enough support under the leg and I (and SWHMBO) found it tiring on long drives. We went to Exmoor Trim before we got the Le Mans and tried all the seats and have to admit the Elite's were not to our liking at all. However the LM's were perfect, I had tried them in DAZ110's vehicle when he was in the area and was kind enough to drop by my office so we could try them so I had a good idea what they were like beforehand. I would say we are medium leg length and they are perfect for us, the seat base is about the same length as the Porsche seats so offers the support we are looking for and also stop us sliding around off road - we miss out on the weight to keep us in one place  I must add that we had the Exmoor seat risers fitted on the standard seats and that helped but with the LM's they did make the seats uncomfortable.
The Daytona's look like they could be the choice but I would like to try and find somewhere to try them out before buying.

Thought it might be handy when they are so close to you.
I'll have to be your official seat adviser, tester and finder soon!
