Rear seat space
Discussion
Guys, I'd appreciate some feedback in terms of the size of person that can fit in the back seat with a degree of comfort.
My daughter is struggling to fit in the back of the morgan if the hoods up - she is about 5 ft. So i am looking at alternatives sadly
The cerb has always been on my list, but if they dont fit, it's not gonna fly

That'll be quite tight I'd say 
My daughter is 4ft, and thats just about right for the backseats. Depends however how far you have to push the driver/passenger seat to the back.
Don't you have someone in your area for a test?
Cheers, I wondered if I was being optimistic, I was going to swing by hexham horseless carriages this weekend but checked their site yesterday and they appear to have sold the cerbs they had last time I checked it!

My wife is about the same height so probably doesnt need the passenger seat back very far... I will have to try them for size I think.
Edited to add: just check HHC again now and they have two in stock (couldnt find them yesterday with my poxy phone internet browser - Just need to an excuse to pop to hexham in the week!

The latter sits already there for a while...

A 5' person can squeeze in to the back of a Cerb ..... but really only for a short journey.
Also those back seats will be too uncomfortable for anyone that size.
I think you'll regret buying one as your daughter will rapidly outgrow it.
I'm speaking rom experience as my car doesn't get near as much use now as the kids are older and find it uncomfortable in the back.

Thats my worry, I can see the same issue with the morgan, tbh, it will only get used on warm days when we can peel the roof off and for short trips (cures headroom issue but brings in wind buffeting as they are pretty exposed in the back!)

I guess, I'll have to go and try a cerb out for size, Although as my wife is only 5 ft 1, if my girl gets any bigger (shes only 11) she could take the front seat, right! (I may need some tips on how to swing that one
) I cant think of many 4 seaters that truly enthuse me, elan +2 and 911 being the only other things off the top of my head! Maybe i'll have to start another What car thread, in GG

chance A Maser 3200 / 4200 has a lot more room than a Cerb. It is almost a proper seat. Its not going to cut the mustard to the South of France mind but it is pretty good.
A Jag XKR etc is a complete joke even though it is huge which is dissapointing. 2+2 do annoy me a little bit, which I guess is why I have stuck with my BMW M3 (E36) for so long now. I had a 944 and those weren't really any use either!

Maybe you and the wife need his and hers TVRs? Macho Griff for the lady and a classic S for yourself?
Now you could be on to something thereActually Ive just spent a while looking at old mustangs, but there are none within 200 miles, no masers within 100 miles.
