Anyone had the misfortune to have to drive a newer shape corsa?
The seats are bum droppings........I'd rather sit on a box.
Theres a bar running across the seat bottom level with the very top of your legs.
I've had one as a works car for 4 years and work all over so done 1000s miles of pain :evil:
After about half an hour and you feel like you're sitting on a fence.
Result is for quite a while I've got a constant ache in the back of my left leg at the top where the bar is.
It's such a pleasure to get in the lude at the weekends to experience proper seats.
But I guess the corsa is designed for the quick pop to the shops and not long journeys...........no excuse for the seats though.
Sorry for the rant but at least it made me feel better :lol: but still aching

Saab seats are the comfiest i've ever sat in. The Volvo comes a close second though.

Had a look through that thread and I'm pretty shocked to see seats that were ruined after a year!! The seats in my Golf are 21 years old, and to be honest they're rather comfy, I don't have any trouble with them on long journeys. The seats in my Accord are still way comfier though, can't beat heated leather and chunky bolsters :D
