Thanks all for the info... I currently drive a Nissan Micra... one of the most roomiest small cars ever. I just want a larger car - a sedan... something with more power as well as room. its not so much the gearstick, its feeling comfortable pushing the clutch in and out with my knee up near the steering wheel. I have an evenly proportioned body and weight in at 120kg so im not skinny and having a leg between the steering wheel and door is not that fun... do seats vary much between leather and standard? I will go into a dealer on the weekend and see if I can find all the buttons on the seat to adjust it aswell as pedal height (which I didnt know about)
