    No but I know a very short bloke who had a black R5 that had the drivers seat raised alot and the passenger seat lowered so it made him look tall

    Yeah couldn't quite steer quite right with that car. 6ft 4, but as Chris says on my 5 I have the seats mounted further so have plenty of space now only problem being is with the size 16 feet it gets interesting trying to use the pedals.

    I think I'm pretty much on the limit of looking a bit too big for the GTT and I'm a mere 6ft and 15 and a half stone.

    My mate is about 5ft 10" and 20 stone and I always think the seats going to give way when he's in it!

    It's easy enough to make up a couple of brackets to mount the seat further back then it's no problem?

    I'm 16.5 stone & 6'2" & i now fit & feel comfortable.

    Don't give a rats ass as to how i look because i love driving my GTT

    I don't know what yer all going on about, I'm one of the fossils of he club, size is not an issue, but I do look like a cock getting out of a 5 because I look too old. That said, it came in handy once when a rozzer pulled me over or ragging it past him. He was supprised to see a 30+ driving and told me to grow up I asked if he was talking to me or Ross? Hahahahhaahahah
