F Type suitability

[Roosterrs]

Hi all
I am looking at a F type and want to get your thoughts on suitability for someone who is 6ft 4” tall. Is being tall an issue?
I prefer the coupe. Are some models more suitable than others?
Many thanks for your help.

Search you tube for an account called tootalltodrive - I believe he is 6'5 and has the coupe so useful to get his opinion where he overall says it it fine (I think)

I’m sure I’ve seen a video on YouTube that said the coupe seat goes slightly further back than the convertible, making it a better choice for the tall.

At 6ft 2” I found the convertible with the standard seats better than the coupe with the sports seats, best to try a few combinations if possible.

I'd give a little thought to relative lengths of legs and back. A 6'4" driver with relatively short legs might fit better/worse than someone of the same height with longer legs. I'm 5'9" with a 5'6"-ers legs and a 6-footers back!

Bear in mind that if you go for a coupe the panorama roof option, that seems so popular, eats a little more space too.

I would strongly recommend sitting in both versions of coupe and the convertible before you commit.

Have tried a 23 plate coupe and there was plenty of room for me. I was very surprised how much room there was. It did have the sports seats in though. So game on. Need to sell my other vehicle first but I will be looking soon hopefully.

My 6'4" son fits my P450. The sports seats have lots of adjustment.

My son is 6'4' and finds my F type very uncomfortable as his head touches the roof. I think it depends on whether you have a long body, or long legs.
Oddly, he has a Lotus Elise which is a much smaller car and he doesn't have a problem.
