Hi,
My old body don't bend like it used to. Anybody have an easy or trick way of getting in and out of these little cars? Once in I'm fine but gettin there gets harder every year. Cheers, Elliot |

that's what I do! Group: Members Posts: 20,065 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Port Hope, Ontario Member No.: 26 Region Association: Canada |
I'm 6'-1" with the roof off it's easy, just step in and slide down the seat. With the roof on I put one leg in, sit on the long, stick my head in, shimmy back a bit and swing my other leg in. The only problem is I kick the fuse box sometimes. Exit is the reverse of above.
A smaller wheel would help but I hate blocking the gauges. Even at 42yrs old I find it a bit of a PITA, but it's worth it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
