Hiya, I've been pondering looking into buying a used GTO3 but before I go waste someone's time I was wondering.....will I fit?? I'm 5'5'' and would like to know if anyone has been able to scoot the seat close enough for someone my size to fit?

Thanks!

Twerlie's wife is considerable shorter than that and I believe she's driven his. How tall is Ash?

I have the seat as far forward as it goes and I'm 5'10.
You can get the seat rails moved forward though if it doesn't get you close enough.

I've got one and a friend of mine had a go without problem. He's 5'5" (and a half!!!) wink


Actually, thinking about it the previous owner must've had the rails drilled. getmecoat

I'm 5ft 9. Seat is as far forward as it goes. Any shorter and you will have to get the seat rails drilled

My wife is 5ft 5 and she struggles to reach the pedals.
Thats the best reason I can think of to not let her drive it!

Just get the seat rails moved forward by 4 inchs (that's the max) and you'll be fine.

This is the best one yet. My wife is 5ft and I'm 6'1. I have to slide the seat forward and pull the steering wheel out for a good position. The missus puts 2 cushions behind her and 2 under her backside with the seat fully forward and the steering pulled right out. She drives it perfectly well. In fact, I'd go so far to say, a petit blonde in a Noble looks kinda good!
Que: blonde with my Nob in her hands joke.rolleyes

I'm 6' and pull the seat a couple of clicks forward. My wife is under 5'2" and is OK to drive it with a pillow behind her - well she didn't have any problems on the Noble car limits day anyway! smile

I,m a perfectly formed 5 7 and my seat is all the way forward. I think I noticed Martyn (triman) has custom made cushions which look pretty cool and would help with reach.
