Seat comfort for the taller driver
Posted: Thu Jun 10, 2010 9:34 am
Anyone experience discomfort (especially in the left leg) on long drives when driving the polo?
I am 6'2" and after about 2 hours of driving I get pain in my left leg. I suspect its because my thigh has no support on the seat bolster even with my foot on the footrest next to the clutch pedal.
If I push the seat back any further I cant reach the steering wheel and gearlever comfortably... So at the moment its a compromise which is not ideal.
If I could move the steering wheel and gearlever back by about 3" the problem would go away.
Anyone else get this pain? Any ideas of how to deal with it?
