Alan, I'm 6'3" and they're fine for me too. Perhaps it's that we're not a pair of whining old grannies? I doubt Glyn and his tall colleagues moan in the field that their knees rub.

Some. Balls. Grow.

Well I'm 6'2 and swmbo is only 5'2. With the current cubby box setup the seats needed lifting a little and I liked the idea of not having my knee wedged up against the dash. So with mud rails in place she can see over the bonnet properly and I can sit for hour without hitting my knee. Also with the passenger seat right back I can stretch out and sleep comfortably. Ner Ner nut to you lot. Russell
