Im 6'6" and 20 stone and did 1400 miles in a week last year in mine, was honestly very comfy. I could live without the Auto Wipers tbh, i find them a pain in the ass, never wipe when you need them to then go into full spastic panic mode when raining normally at times. yep auto wipers blow ass. they have a mind of their own. Ive narrowed my car search down to 3 cars, and the reason i asked this question in the 1st place is because the rallye is the car Ive never had experience with. the other 2 are MG ZS 180 and clio 172 phase 1 and Ive driven both of them when i was in the motor trade. ________________________________________ My car has 120kg of ballast- Me! |

No point paying a premium for one of those tramp-wagons. Just buy a six instead. ________________________________________ You feed beefburgers to swans. I may have been speeding Mr Policeman but [a] I live for the 306 and [b] did you see that dog? omfg |

Surely the 172 will be a smaller, more uncomfortable car than a rallye? Wouldn't even consider it if you're worrying about a rallye mate |
