    Default Rubbish astra vxr's

    Went to have a look at a silver one this morning. When I was asked if I wanted a test drive I said yes why not. He got the keys and I sat in the seat, went to lower it ad my head was touching the roof lining only to find it's as low as it will go! So I am physically unable to fit in the damn thing!

    So far Ford Focus 1, astra Vxr 0!

    Unfortunate thing is the seats in the VXR sit higher than they do in other models due to the subframes.

    It's a really nice seat, just two inches too high!

    Exactly my thoughts. 6'6 and about 19 stone here (122 kg). Sat in a nice black ST with about 3" of head room.
