I know, I know, I should just try one, but before I do:

- I do NOT fit in a standard Caterham (at least if I want the steering wheel fitted!)
- Caterham SV is fine (plenty of space)
- Locost also fine (more glove-like though)

I'm 6'4", what are my chances?
And are all Westfields the same size?

This question crops up time and again on this forum. Fortunately I am well qualified to answer as I am both tall, and work with different makes and models of kit car.

And the answer is- you have to try the car in question for yourself. There are various ways you can do this. You can go and see one that you fancy that's for sale, or you could ask on here,or much better on the WSCC forum for somebody local to you who would let you try his car on for size, and I'm sure you will get plenty of offers.

Do not rely on anecdotal information, different people get their height and weight from different parts of their bodies. I used to share a car with somebody who was exactly my height, and I always had to adjust the mirror when I got into it if he had been driving it.
