It's a no no. I think it would invalidate your insurance, or at least persuade Insurance coy. to refuse to pay out.
I'm sure the police wouldn't give a monkey's ...... your fiendly MOT tester isn't! ;)

Right, first off, this is not ment to be a racist comment (as many of those I refer to are my friends!), it is simply a comment against an observation.

Being somebody who grew up near Leicester I know quite a few indians, now, many of them are quite short with some of the wives even shorter.

Drive around the Melton Road in Leicester and all you see are big Mercs and the like with eyes peering through the steering wheel.......

Hee-Hee. I can relate to that.
Back in the 70's we had a Ford Zephyr IV MK 3, if anyone can
remember those big bruisers. It had a bench front seat and
column gear change. Mrs Grumpy can't be described as the
tallest lady in the world  :) , and when driving this non-adjustable
behometh she had to look between the dashboard and the top
of the steering wheel. Everyone did a double take when she drove
by. My mates used to reckon that it looked like the car was driving
itself down the road. Some folk even thought for a second that
it was a runaway.  ;D

I'm in desperate need of leccy memory seats for my car... I'm 6'4" and a bit... my mum is 5'2". She moves mine out of the way, or drives it every now and again, and it takes weeks for me to get my seat back in the right place...

:o :o :o :o
Just nipped to the shop in my lunch hour as i have ran out of doggy food this morning......

on route home i saw a facelift pull up behind me, nice looking one(same it wasnot an estate) 02 plate. .....
but when i looked to try and see in my mirror who was driving i couldnt see anyone.??????
well got stuck at the lights and then i could see what looked like a little old lady drivin this big motor but she was straining to see over the stearing wheel.

im  :o :o :o cos 1, what is she doing driving such a big car and 2, :o :o cos does she not know how to raise the seat or drop the stearing wheel to aid her vision.

Bet the old sod has knicked it ;D ;D ;D ;D

We find that the memoried seats on the Elite are brill, I've got setting 1, Jill has setting 2, I have 3 set up for motorway driving where the rake moves back and the rear view mirror adjusts accordingly.. :y

My wife's suffers from ducks disease (arse too close to the ground) but it make no difference to her driving the beast .. she's just not allowed to.

She has the clit; small, noisey, and never does what it's asked .... matches her personality exactly.

Well suited if you ask me .. :)
