159 to Giulietta

[cnut]

I have a really boring practicality question. I will be jumping ship from a 159 TBI to a Giulietta QV soon. The 159 is quite a cramped car inside for what it is, especially the rear leg room (my old Golf MK5 was better) is the Giulietta more spacious inside than the 159 or worse?

Thanks

I went from 2 Gs to a 159 Ti SW. Rear leg room is about the same in both. The front however is more spacious in the G, but I would say overall less comfortable, owing mostly to the seats which are less hugging.

Thanks, rear leg room isn't massively important. The problem I'm having with the 159 is that my son's rearward facing seat is behind my seat which means I have to pull my seat a bit more forward than I am usually comfortable with!

Check the G with the baby seat on.
When my son was on a rear facing seat behind the passenger side, no one could really seat at the front

Well the conclusion is... There is definitely more room for us all compared to the 159. I would say the rear bench isn't as wide but there is more length inside so I don't have to put my seat a lot more forward than I would have liked. So I'm happy about that, just can't wait till he can go in a forward facing seat!
