Neil VR6 0 Posted October 27, 2004 My head is about 2cm off the roof on my G60, can you get the seats "lowered"?! This must be a problem for other tall owners. I'm only 6 foot 1 - 6 foot 2! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 27, 2004 There are taller people than you on here and they don't have issues! I assume the seat is as low as it can go? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted October 27, 2004 I'm around 6'2 and find the Corrado has tonnes of head and legroom - have you got the rear seat support dropped right down or are you sitting with the seat max raised and body pressed to the steering wheel or something? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted October 27, 2004 I'm 6foot1 and I've got LOADs of headroom in my Corrado G60.... :| There's 2 levers under the seat, one alows the seat to be moved forwards and back, the other allows the seat to be lowered or raised... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawhide 0 Posted October 27, 2004 I'm 6'1 and have no problem. I have the seat quite high as well, you sure your adjuster handle hasn't fallen off :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil VR6 0 Posted October 27, 2004 Hey, I'm not a girl! I drive in what you would consider a normal position, fairly upright with my arms slightly bent. Does the seat have a height adjustment? (can you tell I've only had the car for 3 weeks! :D ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted October 27, 2004 The lever which should be on the left underneath the seat is like a handle you can pull and then pivot the seat up and down... ANYONE can fit into a Corrado with the seat set as low as it can go! :) Its also the bloody annoying one that passengers ALWAYS pull when getting into the back thinking it will help move the seat forward, and it goes with such a bang that you think the seat is going to rip itself off the rails! :| Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil VR6 0 Posted October 27, 2004 You have single handedly made my Corrado experience more enjoyable although my osteopath will no doubt miss my daily appointments (that was a joke by the way) Thanks guys, I shall enjoy my drive home a lot more now. I thought it had changed since I had the stereo fitted (seat was removed for power cable) but I thought there was no height adjustment! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradophil 3 Posted October 27, 2004 Its also the bloody annoying one that passengers ALWAYS pull when getting into the back thinking it will help move the seat forward, and it goes with such a bang that you think the seat is going to rip itself off the rails! Yeah, I get that all the time, why do passengers have to fiddle :mad: In my old MK2 Golf, if the passenger seat was too far forward it got very close to the gear lever, so when you selected reverse you would wedge your hand between the seat and the gearknob. I was tempted several times to disconnect the adjustment leaver so it couldn't be moved. One of my mates is 6'4" and he can fit in the rado ok :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theRuler 0 Posted October 27, 2004 i am 5 foot 9, and have my seat dropped as far as it will go, and the column dropped as low as it will go. its a very comfortable car to drive. in the golf i felt like i was swinging from the steering wheel like a chimp in the C i am sitting as comfortably as if i were playing a driving game . . . .

kerrinmay 0 Posted October 27, 2004 I'm 6'4" and was the first thing I adjusted when I went to look at purchasing my first Corrado 3 weeks ago - couldn't even get in the car without making the necessary adjustments first! However I do find that depending on my hairstyle for the day, it sometimes brushes against the headlining! 6'7" tall Scott? People think I'm tall at 6'4"!

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 27, 2004 I'm just under 6 ft and my Cockatiel quiff rubs the headlining when it's at it's peak of Elvisness :lol: I'd rather cut the seatframe than my hair though :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrishill 0 Posted November 9, 2004 jimsG60 it goes with such a bang that you think the seat is going to rip itself off the rails! I found out exactly how much force they go with when i dropped some spare change down the side of the seat, got out of the car to look for it and pulled the handle with my head in the way, knocked me on my ar$e!

Henny 0 Posted December 15, 2004 Lippy, it's impossible to get in or out of a Corrado elegantly... My ex used to be a model and could be the most elegant looking person you could imagine until she tried to get in or out of my first Corrado when she was just too leggy to be elegant! :lol: ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
