I am interested in buying a beat but am unsure If i would fit comftably in onw (with the top up obviously!) .

I am only 5ft 10" and normal build. any advise?

Are there any gatherings anywhere near the coventry area anytime soon?

or would some reallly nice owner who lives near me be generous s enough to take me for a spin .

I really want one but don't want to waste a sellers time by saying "oh sorry I though they were bigger!!"

any help appreciated

I'm 5'10" and don't have a problem. In fact I have the seat forward a couple of notches.
You'll have to slide your legs under the steering wheel but entry and exit is a knack that is simple enough to grasp.
My wife is 6'1" (apparently we're a modern couple now) and although she can't drive it confortably she's happy enough as a passenger. She would probably be able to drive it more comfortably if I got a smaller steering wheel,,,,,,,,so I won't.
