Matt,

I'm the same height as you, and I must admit I found the legroom in my
Spitfire to be fine with the seat moved right back.  Getting in and out
was a bit awkward, but once in I was always quite comfortable.  Fitting
a 13" steering wheel helped.  I was just over 30 when my Spitfire
finally died (about 5 years ago) so youth might have helped!  Also I'm
in the UK, so my Spitfire was right-hand drive, don't know if the
legroom is any better/worse in LHD cars.

When I fitted Mazda MX5 (Miata) seats things definitely got worse, so
don't do that!

Sorry, this still doesn't help you much...


Richard
