There’s no way anyone will press it by accident!

    Yeah you shouldn’t have knees that close to the dash, unless you are 7ft and the seat can’t go back further.

        6’6 here I feel the pain.

        But have you tried the Citroen BX? I had to put on the blinkers to get in, and leave them on while driving…

          There’s no way you just mentioned the Citroen BX. Crazy coincidence. I’ve actually been looking to buy one for a couple of months (the early model with the cool instrument panel) but I’ve never actually sat in one. And I’m just now finding out that it’s too small??

            I can be wrong, it was a very long time ago like in -93 or -94 but if I were you, I sure wouldn’t buy one without trying it out first!

            It had the craziest blinker stick, like really fat with lots of dials and buttons. You also sat really close to the ground IIRC. Maybe it was the more modern version, the cool steering wheel one doesn’t seem to even have a blinker stick?

              Yeah, the earlier ones have a toggle switch on the side of the dash that apparently takes a bit to get used to. The non-adjustable steering wheel is pretty huge in all the models, so that will most likely be the limiting factor. But you’re right, I should probably find one to try sitting in before I intensify my search. Thanks for the heads up!
