Posting this on behalf of my brother...

He's interested in an AMV8 but hasn';t yet been tyo see one - nearest dealer is about 30 miles away but has a '57 plate one he likes the look of.

However, before making the trip over wants to know what they are like for headroom.....he's 6'3/4" and not particularly slim...

So, will he fit ?

Cheers

Not sure how being a keen driver is relevant but he is reluctant to waste a morning going over there if he simply won't fit and could find out beforehand......and not waste the dealers time too, but calling in advance to make an appointment but within seconds not being able to go any further.......

It's a bit like my problem with garage width (see other thread) - happy to drive some distance to look at/drive potential new cars (250 miles last weekend) but not much point unless it will fit in the garage in the first place as can't/don't want to keep it on the drive........

Cheers, think it will be touch and and go for him.......I had the same problem in the Gallardo (and I'm only 6ft) until I moved the seat pitch back and then all was fine.....maybe he'll just have to have a more laid back driving style to make it work laugh
