would I be able to get in and out of an S2 ok at 6 feet 2"? Everyone that I have spoken to in the flesh have said "I can see why you are going for an S3" as the extra few inches on the doors apparently make the difference.

I have just seen the blue one in the classifieds but before I go any further.........

You'll be o.k. they aren't that bad..

..anyway its a TVR.. we're supposed to go without refinement, comfort, and ease of access especially to make the driving experience better

Cheers

In My Honest Opinion

Just thinking actually.... Paceracing is my height and he has no problems getting in and out of his S2 either.

Peter Humphries is certainly not vertically challenged but you should watch him fight his way into his V8S that'll teach ya for having a race seat

I'm about 6' 2" around the waist and I can fit in a S Series.

They're actually quite roomy for a sports car (thanks to PW not being a midget)

Cheers,
