Smallest Elise driver

To quote Peter Kay in Phoenix Nights :

Your girlfriend is so short, she has to go up on you.

I don't understand ? you let your wife's drive your car !

My wife is 4ft 11.

We have a K series S2. She has driven a bit with me in the car. Cushion under bum and pillow behind back. Even then it is a stretch and I don't think it is safe in an emergency stop with the non servoed brakes.

So apart from spacers any ideas yet on how to raise seat and even move it forward couple inches.

I suggested selling the MX5 but she won't/can't drive the Elise on her own so went sh*t. She drove our M100 for 10 years with no problems. Worst case scenario is I sell Elise and MX5 to buy a toyota engined car with servoed brakes and ABS .

Back of my mind tells me you can turn the seat rails round to get an extra inch forward movement. There was also a seat bolster you could buy back in the day but cannot find it. You may need a Evora.

Laura is 4'10" canny reach pedals. What a shame!

Apparently (according to craig, the seat can be lifted from the rails and moved) I didn't hear the rest as I jammed a ball joint in his face to shut him up!

You may have a point. He's very keen to help every time I get the car out now.
